    Distribute decimal value between 6 columns, as percentage

    Hello Forum,

    I have an integer or a decimal value in column A. I need to distribute this value between columns B to G, as percentages.

    Can you please help me with a formula if possible?

    Attached is a sample of what I need.

    Thank you!

    what goes in 6+? is 6 where it ends so that 7.29 will still end in 6+ or does it keep going?

    AND, how far up do your numbers go?

    Put this in B11 and drag down:

    Then put this in C11 and drag down, then across to column F:

    (the 0 will display as 0% - replace the 0 with "" if you would prefer a blank cell)

    Then put this in G11 and drag down:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    If you have a value greater than 6, this will give you a figure over 100% in column G (for example, 7.65 will give you 265%).

    I recently started a new job so am a bit busy and may not reply quickly. Sorry - it's not personal - I will reply eventually.
    If your problem is solved, please go to 'Thread Tools' above your first post and 'Mark this Thread as Solved'.
    If you use commas as your decimal separator (1,23 instead of 1.23) then please replace commas with semi-colons in your formulae.
    You don't need to give me rep if I helped, but a thank-you is nice.

    Hello Guys,

    I am so sorry I was caught in the XMas fiever and didn't have time to get back to you.
    Sambo, 6+ is the end of all. Therefore, if my figure exceeds 6, there will be 100% in the 6+ column.
    Aardigspook, your solution works except for the last column so I changed the formula to :

    I also tried this one
    Column B

    from column C to G and it seems to work:
