    Thumbs up Lookup number in column and interpolate result

    If i have two columns
    A1=10, B1=100
    A2=20,B2=200

    In cell D1 is the number 7
    In cell E1 i need to lookup and find cell D1(7) in column A:A and return the interpalated value from Column B:B

    find that D1 is inbetween 10 and 20 and work out the correct value between 100 and 200. answer should be 150

    Im using whole numbers in this example but in reality i need to use numbers to 3dp, so the rounding up and down etc i tried did not work.
    I'm using numbers more like
    15.253, 25555.365
    19.657, 56325.268
    and i want to find what the equivalent of 18.0 is between these numbers?
    Thanks for any help given.
