The MULTIPLY IF function in Google Sheets allows users to multiply values based on specific conditions. It combines the IF and MULTIPLY functions, enabling users to set conditions and perform multiplication calculations simultaneously. This function is useful for quickly and accurately calculating multiple values based on varying criteria. By using the MULTIPLY IF function, users can efficiently perform complex calculations without the need for multiple formulas or manual calculations. This feature is particularly helpful for organizing and analyzing large sets of data in Google Sheets.
Use a MULTIPLY IF Function in Google Sheets
You can use the following basic formula to create a MULTIPLY IF function in Google Sheets:
=ARRAYFORMULA(PRODUCT(IF(A2:A11="string",B2:B11,"")))
This formula multiplies all of the values together in B2:B11 where the corresponding cell in the range A2:A11 is equal to “string”.
The following example shows how to use this formula in practice.
Example: MULTIPLY IF Function in Google Sheets
Suppose we have the following dataset that shows the total points scored by basketball players on various teams:
We can use the following formula to multiply together each value in the points column if the corresponding value in the team column is equal to “Mavs”:
=ARRAYFORMULA(PRODUCT(IF(A2:A11="Mavs",B2:B11,"")))
The following screenshot shows how to use this formula:
The product of the values in the points column for the rows where team is equal to “Mavs” is 700.
We can verify that this is correct by manually multiplying each of the points values together for the Mavs:
Product of points: 7 * 20 * 5 = 700
This matches the value that we calculated using the formula.
Note: You can find the complete documentation for the PRODUCT function in Google Sheets .
