    can Excel solve for uknowns?

    Do you guys know if Excel can solve for unknowns? i.e. 3x=10, solve for x? I already solved what I'm after by hand, but I need to put it in a spreadsheet.... anyone know?

      isn't that just if you are trying to find the max/min value and not just the basic answer to a variable?

        well it is set up to find that max and min ut with a little trickery you can get it to solve just about anything... if you want a great problem solving tool go find a free copy of matlab. matlab will do absolutely anything you want

          I think that mathematica will also solve problems.

              +1 to matlab. Maple is a ornery bitch.

                      matlab is an AWESOME tool. We used it in my old engineering math class.

                        I'm also a fan of SPSS, but again I just needed to be able to reference another part of the worksheet in the formula.
