    Formula that gives me a specific value after removing top and bottom 10%

    This is not conditional formatting. I have an unusual request and little hard to explain but I will try to make it simple and explain.
    Let say I have data sets of total 100 numbers ranging from 1 to 100.
    I want a formula that gives me two value after ignoring/removing bottom & top 10% of the data set. So the answer will be something like 11 & 90. Does that make sense or need more clarification?

    My actual data has data sample of like 500 hundred numbers ranging from 30 to 80. I want to remove outliers (bottom 10% and top 10% from this 500 data sample and give me two numbers after removing the top and bottom 10% number. After removing the top and bottom numbers I want the starting point number and ending point of that data set.

    The percentile function is probably the solution. It can give you the 10th and 90th percentile and you either want this, or the value= or above for the 10th and = or below for the 90th
    either inc or exc
    =PERCENTILE.INC(A1:A100,0.1)
    or as an array (enter with shift control alt)
    =MIN(IF(A1:A100>=PERCENTILE.INC(A1:A100,0.1),A1:A100))
