An analyst is cleaning a new dataset containing 500 rows. They want to make sure the data contained from cell B2 through cell B300 does not contain a number greater than 50. Which of the following COUNTIF function syntaxes could be used to answer this question? Select all that apply.
- =COUNTIF(B2:B300,>50)
- =COUNTIF(B2:B300,”<=50”)
