    Result from formula with blank cell

    I am getting a result of 0.2 from a formula in cell AG10, even though it involves multiplication with blank cells (G10:Q10). I would be grateful if anyone could help me find where the issue might be from.

    Are you sure that those row 10 cell are blank, maybe a formula, or a number with CF or numberformat hiding them.

    BTW, you can use SUMPRODUCT to simplify your formula

    =SUMPRODUCT(G7:Q7,G10:Q10)

    The formula you provided surprisingly works!!
    Strange how the one I entered was having issues with the blank cell.
    Thanks.

    In my test, your formula also worked. There must be something there.
