How to sum a column in excel shortcut mac

Answer

To sum a column in Excel on a Mac, yes, you can use a keyboard shortcut to quickly calculate the total of a selected range.

1. Select the cell directly below the numbers in the column you want to sum.

2. Press Command (⌘) + Shift (⇧) + T.

   • This shortcut automatically inserts the SUM formula for the range above the selected cell.

3. Press Enter to complete the calculation. The cell now displays the total of the column.

Additional Notes

• Ensure there are no blank cells in the column for accurate results. Blank cells are ignored, but cells with text will cause an error.

• The equivalent formula inserted automatically is:

  =SUM(A1:A10)

  where A1:A10 represents your selected range.

Alternative Method Without Shortcut

1. Click the cell where you want the total.

2. Go to the Formulas tab in the menu bar.

3. Click AutoSum. Excel highlights the most likely range to sum.

4. Press Enter to confirm.

This method works well if you prefer using the mouse over the keyboard.
