Question

Which function is used to calculate the maximum value in a selected column in MS Excel?

The correct answer is

Max

In MS Excel, to calculate the maximum value in a selected column, the function MAX is used. This function examines a specified range of cells and returns the highest value found within that range. It's a simple yet powerful tool for quickly identifying the maximum numerical value among data points in the spreadsheet. Select the range you wish to evaluate, and utilize the formula =MAX(range), where "range" is replaced with the actual cell range.

For example, to find the maximum value in cells A1 through A10, you would enter =MAX(A1:A10) in an Excel cell.
