How to Multiply Column by a Constant in Google Sheets

To multiply a column by a constant in Google Sheets, you'll need to use an ARRAYFORMULA function combined with the multiplication operator. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to do it:

1. Open your Google Sheet containing the data you want to multiply.
2. Click on an empty cell where you'd like to display the result.
3. Enter the following formula in the cell:

=ARRAYFORMULA(A1:A* constant)

Replace A1:A with the range of the column you want to multiply, and replace constant with the constant value you want to multiply the column by.

4. Press Enter to apply the formula.

Example

Let's say you have a list of numbers in column A (from A1 to A5) that you want to multiply by the constant value 10. Here's how you can do it:

1. Click on an empty cell where you'd like to display the result, for example, B1.
2. Enter the following formula in the cell:

=ARRAYFORMULA(A1:A5 * 10)

3. Press Enter to apply the formula.

The result will be displayed in column B, with each value in column A multiplied by 10.
