Differentiate relative cells refrences and mixed cell refrences
Answers
Answer:
Unlike relative references, absolute references do not change when copied or filled. You can use an absolute reference to keep a row and/or column constant. ... If it precedes the column or row (but not both), it's known as a mixed reference. You will use the relative (A2) and absolute ($A$2) formats in most formulas.

Relative references
By default, all cell references are relative references. When copied across multiple cells, they change based on the relative position of rows and columns. For example, if you copy the formula =A1+B1 from row 1 to row 2, the formula will become =A2+B2. Relative references are especially convenient whenever you need to repeat the same calculation across multiple rows or columns.
Absolute references
There may be times when you do not want a cell reference to change when filling cells. Unlike relative references, absolute references do not change when copied or filled. You can use an absolute reference to keep a row and/or column constant.
An absolute reference is designated in a formula by the addition of a dollar sign ($) before the column and row. If it precedes the column or row (but not both), it's known as a mixed reference.
