Explanation

In Excel, a pre-built formula is referred to as a function. Functions are predefined formulas designed to perform specific calculations or operations using given inputs called arguments. They simplify complex tasks by allowing users to apply ready-made formulas without creating them manually. Excel offers a wide range of functions for tasks such as summing numbers, averaging data, counting items, and more. To use a function, you enter its name followed by the necessary arguments enclosed in parentheses.
