Countif does not work

[c4ec]

Hi appreciate help on getting Countif to work on this situation:

=80%
=80%
=100%

<60%

Formula is COUNTIF(A5:A8,G11), where A5:A8 is the table above, and G11
contains >=80%. how do I set a formula to calculate that there are
two counts of ">=80%"? the value returned is zero instead of 2
counts.

I did a =A5=G11, which returned a TRUE.

Regards

Try this:

=COUNTIF(A5:A8,"="&G11)

Does that help?
