Answer:

AutoSum is a function in Microsoft Excel and other spreadsheet programs that adds together a range of cells and displays the total in the cell below the selected range. For example, if you wanted to add the values of cells between A1 and A5, highlight cells A1 through A5 and click the AutoSum button (shown right). Clicking this button after highlighting the cells creates the formula =SUM(A1:A5) in cell A6 (first cell after last highlighted cell) and gives you the total of all those cells.

The AutoSum feature makes entering formulas easy without the need to memorize the syntax for each one. Plz mark me brainliest

Answer:

A function in a spreadsheet program that inserts a formula in the selected cell that adds the numbers in the column above it. It sets the range of cells by looking for numeric data above the selected cell.

The AutoSum feature is used to sum the values of columns or rows with a single click. When you use it, Excel tries to guess which cells you are trying to sum up. I'll show you a few methods to use this tool and explain when you have to be careful if you want to avoid problems.

Explanation:

To sum a column of numbers, select the cell immediately below the last number in the column. To sum a row of numbers, select the cell immediately to the right. AutoSum is in two locations: Home > AutoSum, and Formulas > AutoSum.
