Formula required

[bandit65]

I'm a newbie and require assistance with the following:

Cell A1 will contain the amount of days a person has worked and will be maual input. Cell B1 will calcualate annual leave due to a person on the basis of 1 day for every 17 days worked, so data in B1 must increase by 1 or part of it every time A1 increases by 17 or part of it.

Thanks

Welcome to the board.

Does this work?

=A1/17

E.g 34 days = 2 days holiday

hi and welcome to the board

in B1 use the formula:

=Int(A1/17)

the int function stands for integer, and waits until there are 17 days so that 17/17 = 1
