ITPEC IP October 2018 — Question 17 of 100

The formula needs a relative score reference and a row-fixed perfect-score reference. The required expression is 100*B3/B$2. B3 must change by both row and column so each copied cell uses the corresponding student's subject score. The perfect score must change from B to C to D when copied horizontally, but its row must remain fixed at row 2.

Answer (b)

Why not others:
- $B2 fixes the subject column and lets the perfect-score row move

- $B3/$B2 fixes both references to the English column

- B$3/B$2 fixes the student's row and would not move down for other students

Key rule: A dollar sign before the row fixes the row; a dollar sign before the column fixes the column during formula copying.
