PRODUCT

Formulas / PRODUCT
Multiply numbers given as arguments.
==PRODUCT(number1,[number2],...)
  • number1 - required argument that is the first number or range to multiply
  • number2 - [OPTIONAL] second number or range to multiply

Examples

  • =PRODUCT(3,8)

    The PRODUCT function returns the product of two or more numbers. For example, this returns 24, since 3 x 8 = 24.

  • =PRODUCT(3,8,4)

    The PRODUCT function can also handle three or more numbers. For example, this returns 96, since 3 x 8 x 4 = 96.

  • =PRODUCT(A1:A4)

    You can also use PRODUCT to multiply the contents of a range of cells. For example, if you have the numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4 in cells A1, A2, A3, and A4, respectively, then the formula will return 24, since 1 x 2 x 3 x 4 = 24.

  • =PRODUCT(A1:A4, 6, 8)

    You can also use PRODUCT to multiply a mix of numbers and cell ranges. For example, this will return 1152, since 1 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 6 x 8 = 1152.

  • =PRODUCT(A1, B2, 8, 10)

    You can also use PRODUCT to multiply a mix of numbers and cell references. For example, this will return the product of the contents of cells A1 and B2 with the numbers 8 and 10. If A1 contains 2 and B2 contains 3, the the result will be 480, since 2 x 3 x 8 x 10 = 480.


Summary

The PRODUCT function is a useful tool for multiplying numbers together. It takes multiple arguments, such as constants, cell references or ranges, and multiplies them all together, ignoring empty cells and text.

  • The PRODUCT function takes up to 255 arguments which can be hardcoded constants, cell references, or ranges.
  • The arguments are multiplied together, though empty cells and text values are not ignored.
  • PRODUCT ignores text and empty cells in the argument.
