Hi – I have a series of numbers is cells A1- D4. say 44, 16, 10, 5

I would like to be able to write a formula that returns the following answers.

1. If "A1" is between 10 and 20 then i want to be able to take the difference above 10 away from 10. ie If A1 is say 15 then i want to produce an answer that is '5" (10-(15-10)
2. For number greater than 20 I want to return a zero value.
3. If A1 is < 10, A1
4. If A1 =10, A1.

So in the case of the numbers i provided above in A1 would equal 0, B1 = 6, C1=10 & D1 = 5

:confused: Perhaps I have mis-interpreted what you wrote but that seems contradictory to me.
For the number 16, the difference above 10 to me is 6. If take that away from 10 you get 4, not 6. 10-(16-10)

I agree that 4 should be correct for that.
Here is my formula anyway:
=IF(A1>20,0,MIN(A1,(10-(A1-10))))

Yes, you are correct - it was my bad.
Chatgp gave me this which works well: =IF(J13 > 20, 0, MAX(0, IF(J13 >= 10, 10 - (J13 - 10),J13)))

Thanks for that. Although that works, you can see that there are considerably shorter options. :)

BTW, is it possible for the original number to be negative? If so, what should the result be (examples)?
