Hi,
I'm seeking assistance with the following:
I have five cells, each with a single whole number ranging from 2 through 50.
I'd like know if any of the five cells can be divided "equally" by one of the other four cells (no remainder).
If this tests true, then a 'test column would be set to value=1; else value=0.

In example:
a1=3; b1=5; c1=10; d1=13; e1=16 the test column would be set to value=1 as 10 can be divided by 5 evenly.

Kind Regards,
Chubs
 
Hi Marcelo,
This worked great! :)
Before I close this chapter may I inquire if there's a way to add one more condition where set "True" only if the 14-7 are adjacent to each other?
In example: 1-14-5-3-7 should be "False" as 14-7 not adjacent. However; 1-14-7-5-3 would be "True" due to "14" and "7" are adjacent.
Thank you.

See pgc's post above - your first example is not correct (1 divides all numbers)

To consider only adjacent numbers maybe...

Array Formula in G1 copied down (adapted from pgc's formula)
=0+OR(IF(A1:E1<>TRANSPOSE(A1:E1),IF(ABS(COLUMN(A1:E1)-TRANSPOSE(COLUMN(A1:E1)))=1,MOD(A1:E1,TRANSPOSE(A1:E1))))=0)
Ctrl+Shift+Enter

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
Hi

Assuming the 1 is a typo, try:

=SUMPRODUCT((MOD(A1:D1,B1:E1)*MOD(B1:E1,A1:D1)=0)*(A1:D1<>B1:E1))>0

Very nice! :cool:

But... as OP wants 1 or 0 ;)
=--(SUMPRODUCT((MOD(A1:D1,B1:E1)*MOD(B1:E1,A1:D1)=0)*(A1:D1<>B1:E1))>0)

Hi, yes you are correct.
My mistake...range is 2-50.
Thanks for the catch.
