    Auto Fill even spaced numbers between two set numbers

    In C9 I have 14
    In C15 I have 27

    C10 - C14 I want to fill in even spaced numbers

    (27 - 14)/6 cells = 2.166666 which would be applied to cells C10 - C14

    C9 = 14; C10 = 16; C11 = 18; C12 = 20; C13 = 23; C14 = 25; C15 = 27

    I have a bunch of different numbers in the column that I want to easily apply this to. How is this done with a formula??

    Hi and welcome to the forum!

    Highlight the range C9:C15. Go to Home/Fill/Series. Excel should be able to detect what you wish to do (you should see a Step value of 2.16666666666667, etc.). Just press OK.

    Format cells with desired number of decimal places.

    Try This
    14
    =C10+($C$15-$C$10)/6
    =C11+($C$15-$C$10)/6
    =C12+($C$15-$C$10)/6
    =C13+($C$15-$C$10)/6
    27

    Thanks a lot! That was just too easy

    I have to do this to over 100 different times in the same column...is there an easy way to apply to the whole column??

    Can you post a sample workbook so we can see precisely how your data is laid out? It doesn't have to be your actual data - a mocked-up version with dummy data will do, just so long as it illustrates what you are trying to achieve.

    Yea I didn't explain it very well It made sense in my head....lol

    I want to be able to use this as a template for other times I can paste numbers in and get the results. I messed with it a little bit and it seems to work when I past numbers in column H.
