    Cool divide into group of 10

    Hello everyone, I'm trying to automate my summary process what I’m looking is the formula that will look up the count in a specific group and divide it equally into 10 groups. For example let say I’m looking at group A that gives me count of 91 I need the formula to divide this number into 10 groups in the following manner:
    1=9
    2=8
    3=8
    4=8
    5=8
    6=8
    7=8
    9=8
    10=8
    Any ideas are welcom....

    Don't know where you're 91 comes from but you can substitute that in.

    =INT(91/10)+IF(MOD(91,10)>=ROWS($A$1:A1),1,0) Dragged down
    Does that work for you?
