Max only if the last month is hte highest

[Jim]

Hello,

When referencing a row of data (say, A:K), I know I can =MAX for the highest
number on this row. What I would like is a formula that will return the max
number only if the max number is in column K. If the max number is not in K,
I would like a blank field.

Can someone help me with this?

Thanks in advance.
Jim

=if(k1=max(a1:k1),k1,"")

One way:

=if(max(A1:K1)=K1, K1, "")
