    Last occurrence of number in column

    Hi All,

    Is there a formula to show the last occurrence of a number.

    Id like to see the number of cells since the number was shown.

    Please see attached example with manually searched answers.

    Thank you for any help or advice you can offer.

    Please explain your suggested answers. The first two numbers do not exist in the list and the last two do not appear at the cell reference you've given.

    Re: Last occurrence of number in column

    Sorry to explain i'm looking at the last occurrence of the numbers in column A, so the first number 3, last occurred 12 cells ago in cell A14. I'm just looking for a formula to fill in the results in column B.
