Hello,

I'm trying to calculate a rate with a formula into one cell. I don't know if this is possible because I need some of the results of the calculations in the result of that formula.

First I need the percentage of C3 of total number in A1 > then I want to multiply that percentage with a number value in cell A2> then I want to divide that result to a number value in B3.

Thank you

Hello Joe,

Thank you very much for your quick reply!
Yes that is exactly what I'm looking for.
Can you add a value error in front of it too?

Think I already figured it out how to add that:

=IFERROR(((C1/A1)*A2)/B3;0)
Yes, if there is a possibility of error, you can wrap it in an IFERROR.

The most common cause of error in a situation like this is trying to divide by zero. Another way of handling that could be:
Excel Formula:
=IF(B3=0;0;((C1/A1)*A2)/B3)
