Learn how to fix these errors: #DIV/0!, #N/A!, #NAME?, #NULL!, #NUM!, #REF! & #VALUE!
The DIV#/0! error occurs in Excel when you are dividing something by 0 or by cell that is currently empty. The error can be suppressed by using IFERROR or IF. The video takes you through some examples where the DIV#/0 might occur in your worksheets.

Ten years later and you are still helping people like me! Thank you sooooooo much!

[@fidzer1974]

Thanks.
Just getting my head around Excel now and this was extremely useful.

[@siddarthbhat8580]

The referencing was a beautiful technique brought up. All videos on UA-cam as far as I saw showed only the IFERROR or IF condition

[@MelodieKate]

Been looking for a simple fix and you have nailed it! Easy to understand and easy to fix - when it is explained! A Million THANKS!!

[@Mingzi39]

thanks kub

[@BRYCEandWESfishing]

In your example, it works if you are dividing two numbers. But what if your end block should include the average of 3 numbers?

[@kellywilson3237]

Really easy to follow. I fixed my error even before the video had finished! Thank you

[@burakm8599]

Dude thank you so much. Been trying to complete this financial model and finally only figured the iferror method after watching this. Lifesaver!

[@mattrecruitingconsultant4886]

this is great, is there also a way so that it there is a div/0 error, the cell changes color? I am making a source of hire recruiting spreadsheet that involves several recruiting metrics. And if a source is costing the employer money but netting in no candidates or hires, I want them to be aware of their cost per applicant spend, but also show it in the red to indicate the source was a waste of money.

[@dannyboy9784]

Nice tip Chester, just what I needed to tune up my spreadsheet....thx

[@SuperNoobIn1080p]

Thank you for such a great tutorial, but I have a question, my problem is the one like you showed last, meaning that the values have not been entered yet. The problem that those cells already contain another another formula, for example =AVERAGEIF(B28:M28,"0") where or how do I add in the IFERROR?

[@marias3745]

This is very helpful. But you can try to zoom out the view so it would be more clear to viewers.😊

what if I have something like this: =IFERROR(E2-F2)/M2. How do I prevent the DIV error from showing up?

[@darrenwalker2007]

Hi I'm brand new to world of Office 365 and am slowly working my way through Excel. I'm working on a worksheet as practise, one of the cells is an average of deliveries over a 6 day period but keep getting #DIV/0! popping up in the Totals cell, have followed the video and placed the formula =AVERAGE(IF(ISNUMBER(F9:F14),F9:F14,"")) then pressing CTRL + Shift + Enter but am still getting the same response #DIV/0! unless I place a 0 in one of the cells, I am trying to leave the cells blank, until I input a number, have I input the formula wrong have checked and double checked it, am I missing something. Am about to start pulling my hair out (well the hair I have left after a lockdown hair cut,) and am considering (in the words of that Great Philosopher Vivian (The Young Ones)) Psychology and Extreme Violence, including me, the computer and a 9kg Sledgehammer, any help would be very much appreciated, as the computer is brand new......

[@svsoleil3255]

Thanks!!! Just what I needed...

[@Gidjoiner]

Thanks, the #DIV was annoying, i had Excel before windows10 killed it, that had the iferror function but open office doesn't, it's now gone with a simple IF function, & locking the dragging formula to a certain box with the $ sign will be useful, i won't have to have a complete column dedicated to a no', I use VLOOKUP eg.. =VLOOKUP(D47;$Materials.$C$3:$F$1149;3;0) for my materials list/range that i use to make quotes for work but didn't know what the $ signs did, 👍👍😉

[@BetterMindJourney]

Exactly what i needed - thank you!

[@jango003]

Well explained. Good job. Thanks

[@dx6052]

Hi Chester Tugwell,
I tried to remove or change the shape of error (#0/DIV!) that appear with equation (= 1000 / 0-1) but to no avail
!
I know the equation mathematically is wrong, but I want to change the error shape from #0/DIV! to 0 if it is possible
thank you

Units Alloc. Units Billed Units Rem.
3258 1728 1530
Units/Day Remaining Total Days Rem.
18 Units Per Day 85
What I have wanted was that is Units Remaining = 0 to see no-remaining but if there are some units left to see Units Per Day which is 1530 / 85 with text saying Units Per Day. Before i was getting Div#/0 error but what i had done is
=IF(O18=0," No-Remainings ", O18/O21)&IF(O18>0," Units Per Day","") it worked for me and gave exactly what i had wanted. {This part ONLY gives me the text msg only if O18 is Greater than Zero &IF(O18>0," Units Per Day","") if O18 = 0 I get the text msg "No-Remainngs" and that comes dividing from the cells O18 and O21. If by dividing O18 / O21 not equal Zero, it gives me the remaining units and the second if txt msg. It works really good no more DIV#/O!.

[@farizmammadov4965]
