In the above picture I have the information in columns F through P. I was wondering if there is a formula (or even mathematically possible) to recreate the data in A through D using only F through P? Essentially working backwards.

@Insomnia81, yes, that's do-able. Here are the formulas ...

B3:

Code:
=$F$3

C3:

Code:
=$G$3

D3:

Code:
=$B3/$C3

B4:

Code:
=($J$3*2)-$B$3

C4:

Code:
=($K$3*2)-$C$3

D4:

Code:
=$B4/$C4

B5:

Code:
=($N$3*3)-($B$3+$B$4)

C5:

Code:
=($O$3*3)-($C$3+$C$4)

D5:

Code:
=$B5/$C5

B7:

Code:
=AVERAGE(B$3:B$5)

C7:

Code:
=AVERAGE(C$3:C$5)

D6:

Code:
=AVERAGE(D$3:D$5)
