Hi, I'm trying to find out how many reams of A4 paper were purchased last year but I only have the total spent per month. The price may change monthly since there may have been purchased from varying suppliers.

Is there an easy way in excel to get that information? For example the below.

MonthUnit PriceQuantityTotal Spent
Jan35.754 143.00
Feb???? 322.00
Mar???? 230.00
Apr???? 276.00
May???? 230.00

Excel Facts

Add Bullets to Range
Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
There's not enough information there to manually get that information. Without the Unit Price, it's impossible to determine.
The closest you could possibly get is if paper was around the same price, you could get a close approximation, but that's it.
