The document provides instructions for two spreadsheet assignments. The first asks students to recreate a spreadsheet that calculates factors of a number in cell A1 using an absolute cell reference. The second asks students to create a spreadsheet that calculates ticket revenues for different performances using absolute cell references for the ticket prices. Students are given sample data and told to put formulas in highlighted cells to calculate values like adult ticket revenue using absolute references for the ticket prices.
A15 absolute cell reference
- 1. Assignment 15: Absolute Cell Reference Spreadsheet 1: Factoring Sheet ***DO THIS SHEET FIRST*** In the video I created a sheet that automatically calculates the factors of any number you type into cell A1. Recreate that sheet. Be sure to use the absolute cell reference in the formula. It is probably easiest to watch the video on one side of the monitor and create the spreadsheet on the other. Ask me in class if you need help displaying two programs, side-by-side, on your monitor. Spreadsheet 2: Ticket Prices Use the data below to create a spreadsheet: Theatre Ticket Prices Hansel & Gretel AdultPrice $15 ChildPrice $10 Performances Adult Tickets Sold Adult Ticket Revenue Child Tickets Sold Child Ticket Revenue Total Night Revenue Friday 55 25 Saturday 58 24 Sunday 63 27 Totals: Figure out the formulas that go in the boxes that are highlighted yellow. Anytime a formula reference (or uses) the ticket prices, it needs to be an ‘absolute cell reference.’ I will give you one example: A B C D E F 1 Theatre Ticket Prices 2 Hansel & Gretel 3 AdultPrice $15 4 ChildPrice $10 5 Performances 6 Adult Tickets Sold Adult Ticket Revenue Child Tickets Sold Child Ticket Revenue Total Night Revenue 7 Friday 55 =sum(B7*$B$3) 25 8 Saturday 58 24 9 Sunday 63 27 10 Totals: The formula =sum(B7*$B$3) says “times the number of tickets sold by the price.” The price is an ‘absolute cell reference’ because you always go back and times the number of tickets sold by the same price in the same cell (B3). Once complete, upload to Bb for grading. Always make it pretty (format it!)
