AND Function in Excel

Beginner

Returns TRUE if all arguments are TRUE, FALSE if any argument is FALSE.

Syntax

=AND(logical1, [logical2], ...)

Example

Use Case

Check if a student passed all subjects (all grades > 60).

Common Errors to Avoid

  • Returns FALSE if any single condition is FALSE
  • Cannot use with full column references if they contain text
  • Often combined with IF: =IF(AND(A1>10, B1<20), 'Yes', 'No')

Pro Tips

Use inside IF functions for multiple criteria. For row-by-row evaluation across ranges, combine with array formulas. Consider using * (multiplication) instead: (A1>10)*(B1<20) returns 1 for TRUE, 0 for FALSE.
