FAQ

Why does the MOD function show an error value after I enter it?

1. Check whether the parameters are numbers or cell references that can be calculated.
2. Make sure you used a standard comma instead of a full-width comma.
3. If a referenced cell contains spaces or text, clean the data and calculate again.

Why is the MOD result different from what I expected?

1. Check whether number and divisor were entered in the correct order.
2. Confirm that the cell references point to the intended cells.
3. Review the syntax again and make sure the formula follows MOD(number, divisor).

1. Enter the MOD formula in the first target cell.
2. Select that cell and move the pointer to the fill handle in the lower-right corner.
3. Drag down or across, or copy and paste the formula into the target range.
