Step By Step Guide of LET Function

Example :

Assume you need to utilise the tax rate “10%” in a calculation several times, and instead of entering it each time, you may give it a name. So we’ll call it “TaxRate” for the time being. So here’s how the formula works:

Formula used:  =LET(Tax,$C$5,D8*(1+Tax))

  • The LET function can rename variables, but these names are only used inside the range of the function.
  • If you need to utilise the same expression or calculation in a formula many times, the LET Function provides a name to it and lets you to refer to it by that name and use it numerous times in the formula.
  • This makes the formula easy to read and helps it run faster.
  • LET employs around 126 name and name-value pairings.
  • In the function, you cannot use the same name for separate variables twice.
  • The LET Function does not care about case.
