Combine multiple logical functions for complex conditions.
You are evaluating loan applications based on multiple criteria: income, credit score, and debt ratio. Determine loan approval in column E based on the criteria: Income > $50,000 AND Credit Score > 700 AND Debt Ratio < 0.3.
Solve it on your own to keep the bonus. Each hint gets one step closer to the formula.
The same formula in the other shapes it takes at work.
Combine multiple logical functions for complex conditions.
Approved either on the numbers, or on a guarantor — two complete rules joined.
TRUE counts as 1 in arithmetic, so conditions can be added up.
A majority rule that AND and OR cannot express on their own.
This is the grid you start with. Cell references in the task — B6, C2 — point at the row numbers and column letters below.
| A | B | C | D | E | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Applicant | Income | Credit Score | Debt Ratio | Approved |
| 2 | John | 75000 | 720 | 0.25 | |
| 3 | Mary | 45000 | 680 | 0.35 | |
| 4 | Tom | 85000 | 750 | 0.2 | |
| 5 | Sarah | 55000 | 650 | 0.4 |
Complex logical combinations allow for sophisticated decision-making rules by combining functions like IF, AND, and OR to evaluate multiple criteria.
