Solved

Hello,

I am reaching out to you because I am currently using a spreadsheet and I am looking for a formula that I have used before but cannot remember.

I have the number 78.3 in a cell to the left and, 50 cells later, I have the number 75. I need a formula that will calculate the decreasing linear difference between the two values compared, 78.3 and 75, taking into account the 50 cells filled in. P.S.: My vocabulary doesn’t use exact terms; I’m just trying to make myself understood!

Thank you in advance.

Best regards.

One solution among others...
In any cell.. =(C10-C28)/ROWS(C11:C27)
C10=The highest number
C28=the lowest
Row matrix = between the two numbers
and in the cells between these two numbers.. =C10-$D$10 to pull down the range where we want the result.
It works, I've tested it.
See you later
