Hello there,

I use countif formula to find out how many times in one year 8 numbers have matched.

wcqjRUbueJkUQAAAABJRU5ErkJggg==


Usually 8 numbers match only once a year or maybe not. prize money for 8 numbers is 10k as above.

But there many times 4,5 or 6 numbers match.

For example to find out how many times 4numbers have matched, I have to scroll through for the entire year to find that out and that takes a very long time.

1) What formula can I use to find out how many times 4 numbers have matched so I can get the answer in one go.?

Each 4 numbers matched has prize money of $2.

2) what formula can I use to find out the total dollar value of the 4 numbers matched ?

Thanks

Hello there,

I use countif formula to find out how many times in one year 8 numbers have matched.

what is the countif formula used for above?
should be able to use the same for 4, 6 numbers etc

the countif formula was countif(x:x,8) but that applies only to 8 hit numbers.

But if 7 numbers have hit instead of 8numbers, I don't know what formula to use if 7 numbers out of 8 have been hit.

1) are the numbers in X:X generated by formula? If so, what is it?

2) shouldn't =countif(X:X,7) give you the number of 7 been hit?

I should have rephrased my question but there is no option to edit once posted

13 14 22 36 55 66 77 78

I have chosen the above 8 numbers and wish to do the following.

1) find out how many times there were 8 hits,7 and 6 hits, I use countif for that


2) When I check for 6 hits of the above 8 numbers, I get about 12 times as the answer with the countif formula


3) I wish to know now which of 6 hits out of the above 8 numbers came 12 times


There could be a mix of those 6 hits that came 12 times
At the moment I spend hours to find that out .
Is there a way I can quick filter that list or use a formula for that.?

forgot to add that I wish to know which of the 6 hits out of the above 8 numbers came 12 times in one year

Looking for a filter feature or formula for a quick results

I've created a dummy file for testing, Column X works out the number of matches of the 8 nos in O2:V2, and you can use a filter in Row 1 to filtered out the no of hits

I went through your dummy file.

I am confused here.

I see in the table that Row 3 has 20 numbers of week 1

But there are 4 keno draws per day 10 am , 2pm, 3pm and 6pm.

So I needed to see 4 rows for the 4 times.

So I do need to see dates and the 4 times

And the no of hits could then be listed in column X.

Now if you created a formula then I should be seeing which dates those hits occured and which times.

so, you want the no of hits of the total of 4 draws of the day?

e.g on June 19, no of matches in 1st draw = 1, 2nd = 1, 3rd =2 and 4th =2. then you want June 19 shows 6, is that right?

I wanted 10am draw to show how many numbers hits, same way for 1pm, 3pm and 6pm separately in its own row. The reason for that is I want an opportunity to filter for example only 10 am draw along with its corresponding date over a period of one year. And when I filter 10 am draw , all other numbers in the chosen period should get blanked out so I have a clear view of the 10 am draw hits over the one year period.

I should have the option to place any 8 numbers (between 1 and 80) on the first row as you did in my previous example.
