Count if (Criteria Range = "X") AND (Criteria Range="X" OR Criteria Range="X")

I need help figuring out a formula to Count if (Criteria Range = "X") AND (Criteria Range="X" OR Criteria Range="X").

The formula I have tried using unsuccessfully was: =COUNTIF($O$2:$O$601,"X")+COUNTIF($Q$2:$Q$601,"X",$R$2:$R$601,"X")

The background: I need a count of companies that fall in a baseline period annotated by "X" (Criteria range 1) and if they have a 2016 survey on file annotated by "X" (Criteria Range 2) OR a 2017 survey on file annotated by "X" (Criteria Range 3).

F2=countifs(a2:b700,"x",c2:d700,"x")

I tried =COUNTIFS(A2:A700,"x",B2:C700,"x")for my exact ranges and it returned #VALUE!

again

F2=countifs(a2:b700,"x",c2:d700,"x") try is 30

I moved things around on my master/original spreadsheet to better fit this formula and yielded the accurate results. Thank you for you help! :D
