Evaluate part of a formula
An Excel shortcut drill from Shortcutdrill. Solve it with a live sheet in your browser with a limit on key presses, and it is checked the moment you submit.
The task
G8 holds =SUM(D8:E8)/F8. Select the SUM part in the formula and press F9 to see its value, then Esc to put the formula back.
