SUM()

Math & Trig

Adds up a range of numbers or a list of values.

SUM(number1, [number2], ...)

SUM adds every number in the cells, ranges, or values you give it, ignoring text and blank cells. It's the most basic aggregation function in Excel.

For a sum with a condition, use SUMIF or SUMIFS instead of wrapping SUM in an IF.

Arguments

number1
A number, cell reference, or range to add.
number2, ...optional
Additional numbers, cells, or ranges to include.

Examples

=SUM(B2:B20)
48,210

Adds every value in the range.

=SUM(B2:B20, D2:D20)
91,455

Sums two separate ranges in one formula.
