Sheetsdrill

Level 1: Basics Exercise 7 of 50 Pro

Month-over-month growth

A Google Sheets formula exercise from Sheetsdrill. Solve it with a formula bar on a live sheet in your browser, and it is checked the moment you submit.

The task

Work out how much signups grew from September to October, as a fraction of September. Answer in B4.

What this exercise teaches

Without brackets, Google Sheets divides before it subtracts. Growth can be negative, which the same formula handles.

A hint if you get stuck

Growth is (new minus old) divided by old. The brackets matter.
