5. Which statement about =SUMIF is correct?

A. If you want, you can apply the criteria to one range and sum the corresponding values in a different range. For example, the formula =SUMIF(B2:B5, "John", C2:C5) sums only the values in the range C2:C5, where the corresponding cells in the range B2:B5 equal "John." To sum cells based on multiple criteria, see SUMIFS function. ✓
B. Requires add-in
C. The SUMIF function returns incorrect results when you use it to match strings longer than 255 characters or to the string #VALUE!.
D. Output is always a dynamic array

Explanation: Correct: If you want, you can apply the criteria to one range and sum the corresponding values in a different range. For example, the formula =SUMIF(B2:B5, "John", C2:C5) sums only the values in the range C2:C5, where the corresponding cells in the range B2:B5 equal "John." To sum cells based on multiple criteria, see SUMIFS function.
