Microsoft EXCEL Laboratory Exercise
1. Open a blank workbook
2. Write the following entries into the specified cells:
C2 : Annual Fruit Sales
B3 : 1999 A4 : Apple F3 : Total
C3 : 2000 A5 : Orange G3 : Average
D3 : 2001 A6 : Banana

D4 : 800 D5 : 1200 D6 : 600
E4 : 1300 E5 : 1450 E6 : 250
3. Merge the cells from A2 to G2. Apply the following changes to the title line:
• Change the horizontal and vertical text alignments as center.
• Change the row height of row 2 as 25.
• Change the font, font size, font style and font color as Tahoma, 18, bold,
blue.
4. Using range selection, select the cells from B3 to G3. Then press Ctrl key on the
keyboard and select the cells from A4 to A6. (this way you can select multiple cells on
different parts of the worksheet) Now change the font, font size and font style of the
selected cells as Times New Roman, 12, bold-italic.
5. Using the AutoSum feature, find and write the sum of cells from B4 to E4 into cell F4.
Then copy this cell to F5 and F6. (Hold the right bottom of F4 and drag it to F5 and
F6) Observe that the formulas are updated when copied.
6. Using the Average function find and write the average sales of apple over years into
cell G4. (Excel will suggest a range automatically to you, however this range will be
wrong. So you will have to select the range yourself) Using the same method in the
previous question, copy this cell to G5 and G6.
7. Add a comment to G4. Write the text “Average sales over years” into the comment
box.
8. Select the cells from B4 to G6. Change format of the selected cells to Currency with
Symbol TL and 3 decimal places.
9. Change the column width of Column A such that all the texts on this column can fit
into the cells.
10. Select the columns from B to G and apply AutoFit Selection for these columns.
11. Add a new row above the 3rd row (that is between rows 2 and 3).
