How to Count Cells with Values Greater than or Equal to

The COUNTIF function counts the number of cells that meet one criterion, such as the cells with a text string, the cells with a certain value, etc. The following formula is to help you get the count of cells that are greater than or equal to a particular value.

Example: You are working with a dataset with the first name in column A, the last name in column B, and the salary in column C.

Formula 1: To count how many persons' salaries are greater than or equal to $70,256

= COUNTIF(C2:C8, ">=70256")

The result returns six, and there are six people with a salary greater than or equal to $70,256.

Formula 2: To count how many persons' salaries are greater than or equal to $75,000

= COUNTIF(C2:C8, ">=75000")

The salaries are in column C. The result returns six, and there are six people with a wage greater than or equal to $75,000.

Notes: The COUNTIF function

Formula:

= COUNTIF(Range, ">=Number")

Explanations:

– The range is required, the range of cells you want to count;
– ">=Number" is required, which is the base number.

Practice: Count Cells Greater than or Equal to
