    Is it possible to count some numbers in a range(Descending order range)

    Is it possible to count some numbers in a range(Descending order range), where those some numbers forms round about 50% of the total sum of the range.

    ex-
    A 2742819 20.30%
    B 1781170 13.18%
    C 1555761 11.51%
    D 1504020 11.13%
    E 1037787 7.68%
    F 943238 6.98%
    G 929913 6.88%
    H 890030 6.59%
    I 738115 5.46%
    J 707029 5.23%
    K 682963 5.05%
    SUMTOTAL 13512844 100.00%

    Here the range is in descending order.
    Now here I want to count the number of items summing to 50% of the total value(i.e 50% of 13512844).
    I have to manually sum to round about of 50%(+/- 2%) and count the individual values that how many have come under that 50%.

    is there any formula for that? because I have to do same work for 500 times.
