Answer:
a) The SUM function adds values. You can add individual values, cell references or ranges or a mix of all three. For example: =SUM(A2:A10) Adds the values in cells A2:10.
b) Returns the average (arithmetic mean) of the arguments. For example, if the range A1:A20 contains numbers, the formula =AVERAGE(A1:A20) returns the average of those numbers.
c) The Microsoft Excel MAX function returns the largest value from the numbers provided. The MAX function is a built-in function in Excel that is categorized as a Statistical Function. It can be used as a worksheet function (WS) in Excel.
d) A function's syntax refers to the layout of the function and includes the function's name, brackets, and arguments. Number (required) is the value you want to round up. If the Num_digits argument is 0, the function rounds the value up to the nearest integer.
