The total is wrong in a spreadsheet because the wrong cell range was selected. What is the correct correction?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Select the correct cell range in the formula
A spreadsheet formula calculates using the cells or range referenced in it. If the range excludes needed values or includes unrelated cells, the result can be incorrect even when the formula function itself is valid. The user should edit the formula or select the intended range, then check the result. Printer settings and hidden rows do not correct the reference.
