COUNTIF example formulas using check box columns

Would anyone have a example of a formula to count checked boxes in a column divided by the number of unchecked boxes. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    This should do the trick. Checkboxes use the actual value of 1 for checked and 0 for unchecked. You can divide the two countifs with simple math like seen below.

    =条件统计([有限公司lumn name]:[Column Name], 1) / Countif([column name]:[Column name], 0)

    So if your column name is Completed Task then it would look like this:

    =Countif([Completed Task]:[Completed Task], 1) / Countif([Complete Task]:[Complete Task], 0)

  • Thank you so much, that works perfect. Now I need to divide by the total number checked by the total number of boxes containg both checked and not checked. I'm so close but no cigar at this point. Any suggestions?

    wouldn't it just be

    =条件统计([有限公司lumn name]:[Column Name], 1) / (Countif([column name]:[Column name], 0) + Countif([column name]:[Column name], 1))?

    Also, the denominator is basically all so you could do a count rather than a countif ... but I think this formula is what you were describing

    The formula dividing the total number into the number of checked is...

    =countif([column name]:[column name], 1) / count([column name]:[column name])

    The count function counts all unblank cells in the range.

Hi @GWOOD02<\/a>,<\/p>

Try setting the criteria to 0.5 instead of 50 as you have the column set to % - right now the formula may be looking for greater than 5000% which obviously won't be found if you're using 0-100%.<\/p>

Let us know if this works or if another solution is required.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":322,"name":"Formulas and Functions","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/formulas-and-functions","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[{"tagID":219,"urlcode":"sheets","name":"Sheets"},{"tagID":254,"urlcode":"formulas","name":"Formulas"},{"tagID":265,"urlcode":"reports","name":"Reports"},{"tagID":335,"urlcode":"sheet-summary","name":"Sheet Summary"},{"tagID":472,"urlcode":"cell-linking","name":"Cell linking"}]},{"discussionID":111988,"type":"question","name":"IF AND Formula Question","excerpt":"I wanted get the below formula running... but get an an #UNPARSEABLE error. =IF AND(Number@row, {Wave B (EMEA) - L4 Mapping}, CONTAINS({Wave B (EMEA) - Country x2}, \"BE\"), \"True\", \"False\") Any help would be much appreciated.","snippet":"I wanted get the below formula running... but get an an #UNPARSEABLE error. =IF AND(Number@row, {Wave B (EMEA) - L4 Mapping}, CONTAINS({Wave B (EMEA) - Country x2}, \"BE\"), \"True\",…","categoryID":322,"dateInserted":"2023-10-20T21:18:29+00:00","dateUpdated":null,"dateLastComment":"2023-10-21T08:53:03+00:00","insertUserID":164249,"insertUser":{"userID":164249,"name":"Ulrich Anderhub 1","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/Ulrich%20Anderhub%201","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/defaultavatar\/nWRMFRX6I99I6.jpg","dateLastActive":"2023-10-21T12:48:10+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭"},"updateUserID":null,"lastUserID":164249,"lastUser":{"userID":164249,"name":"Ulrich Anderhub 1","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/Ulrich%20Anderhub%201","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/defaultavatar\/nWRMFRX6I99I6.jpg","dateLastActive":"2023-10-21T12:48:10+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭"},"pinned":false,"pinLocation":null,"closed":false,"sink":false,"countComments":2,"countViews":37,"score":null,"hot":3395716292,"url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/111988\/if-and-formula-question","canonicalUrl":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/111988\/if-and-formula-question","format":"Rich","lastPost":{"discussionID":111988,"commentID":401071,"name":"Re: IF AND Formula Question","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/comment\/401071#Comment_401071","dateInserted":"2023-10-21T08:53:03+00:00","insertUserID":164249,"insertUser":{"userID":164249,"name":"Ulrich Anderhub 1","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/Ulrich%20Anderhub%201","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/defaultavatar\/nWRMFRX6I99I6.jpg","dateLastActive":"2023-10-21T12:48:10+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭"}},"breadcrumbs":[{"name":"Home","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/"},{"name":"Get Help","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/get-help"},{"name":"Formulas and Functions","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/formulas-and-functions"}],"groupID":null,"statusID":3,"attributes":{"question":{"status":"accepted","dateAccepted":"2023-10-21T08:53:11+00:00","dateAnswered":"2023-10-20T21:36:57+00:00","acceptedAnswers":[{"commentID":401046,"body":"
