SUBTOTAL Formula Syntax

=SUBTOTAL(9, A1:A10)

Example Use Case

Calculating aggregates (sum, average, etc.) while ignoring filtered rows

Understanding the SUBTOTAL Formula

The SUBTOTAL function in Excel performs aggregate calculations (like sum, average, count) on a range, smartly ignoring rows hidden by filters. It’s a dynamic tool for data analysis, adapting to visible data in tables or lists.

SUBTOTAL(9, A1:A10) sums A1:A10, with 9 indicating SUM, skipping filtered-out values. It uses a function number (1-11 or 101-111) and a range, offering versatility—101-111 versions also ignore manually hidden rows.

Why Use SUBTOTAL?

SUBTOTAL shines in filtered datasets—think sales reports or inventory totals. Its filter-awareness and multi-function capability (sum, avg, etc.) make it a flexible choice for responsive summaries.

Example with Sample Data

Range, FunctionFormulaResult
1,2,3,4 (Sum)=SUBTOTAL(9, A1:A4)10
1,2,3,4 (Avg)=SUBTOTAL(1, A1:A4)2.5
5,6,7 (Count)=SUBTOTAL(2, A1:A3)3

SUBTOTAL adapts: sums to 10, averages to 2.5. It’s a filter-friendly aggregator.
