    Red face How to show the frequency amount

    Hello!

    I have a list of numbers (1-60) with some duplicates and I want to organize them so that is shows the frequency that the number appears next to the list of numbers without duplicates.
    So for example:

    3
    4
    5
    5
    4
    6

    I would want it to show like this:

    3 1
    4 2
    5 2
    6 1

    I was told to use pivot table but I'm not sure how to go about it.

    Many thanks,
    Cheers!

    Let's say that your list of duplicates is in range A2:A100 and your unique numbers are in C2:C10. in D2 and down: =COUNTIF($A$2:$A$100,$C2)
    Or set a pivot: Select the data - Insert - Pivot table - add the numbers to Rows and to values and set it as Count.

    In Excel you have dedicated function for Frequency - not that strange it's called FREQUENCY.

    If you want to use full power of this function - it is a bit tricky, because it shall be committed as array formula*

    *...confirmed by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to activate the array, not just ENTER. You will know the array is active when you see curly braces { } appear around your formula. If you do not CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER you will get an error or a clearly incorrect answer.

    So I wrote 1...60 in column D, then selected cells E1:E60 and having them all selected (not just one) I wrote a formula:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    and committed it with Ctrl+Shift+Enter
