Study the spreadsheet given below and write the solutions for the specifications that follow. You can write the answers for any four specifications out of the given five.

Specification 1: Write the formula to be entered in cell H4 in order to calculate Rita's total marks out of 500. How can you easily enter the formula for totals in the four cells (H5 to H8) without typing each individually?
Specification 2: The percentage column should contain the percentage of each student. Write the formula to be entered in cell I4 to calculate the percentage for the first student.
Specification 3: Write the formula that will appear in cell I5 when we copy the formula from cell I4 to cell I5.
Specification 4: Write the formula that should be entered in cell C9 to calculate the average marks in English.
Specification 5: If a column chart is to be plotted of students name against the marks in English, write the range of cells that needs to be selected.
Answer
Specification 1 — The formula to be entered in cell H4 in order to calculate Rita's total marks out of 500 is = SUM (C4 : G4).
We can easily enter the formula for totals in the four cells (H5 to H8) without typing each individually by copying the formula of cell H4 in cell range H5 : H8. To copy the formula, we must select it and drag the cell handle to cell H8.
Specification 2 — The formula to be entered in cell I4 to calculate the percentage for the first student is = (H4 / 500) * 100.
Specification 3 — The formula that will appear in cell I5 when we copy the formula from cell I4 to cell I5 is = (H5 / 500) * 100.
Specification 4 — The formula that should be entered in cell C9 to calculate the average marks in English is = AVERAGE (C4 : C8)
Specification 5 — The range of cells that needs to be selected to plot a column chart of students name against the marks in English is B4 : C8.
