Used for – “/” Function in MS Excel is used tell MS excel that a excel has to multiply the cell value (if numbers / fraction) / numbers / fraction and display the end result achieved.

Syntax – “/” is syntax in itself i.e. no syntax is used for it.

Example – Suppose you have to divide the value of  cell A1 with cell B3 to B7 and C3 to I3  and want the result in A3 to A7 and C2 to I2, then you have choice either divide one by one or you just write  =$A$1/B3 in cell A3 and then drag the same upto A7 and copy the formula and paste the same in the C2 to I2. See example below:-
