    How can I add a Gaussian curve to a histogram on Excel?

    Trying to add a Gaussian (Normal Distribution) curve to a histogram, but I
    dont know how. Any tips or advice?

    Thanks

    One way is to use a combination chart, with a Column chart type for the
    vertical histogram bars and an XY (Scatter) chart type for the normal
    density curve.

    You could start with the chart generated by my free Better Histogram add-in,
    available at www.treeplan.com, which produces a combination chart (so that
    the horizontal axis is more properly labeled), and then you could change
    that chart's XY (Scatter) data series to be based on worksheet data using
    NORMDIST for the curve. You must be careful about scaling so that the Column
    chart type and the XY (Scatter) chart type are aligned correctly.
