If/then with > sign

[Gettingbetter15]

Hi folks! Hoping your Friday is going well!

Today's question is:
Under the total column, I want an if/then statement to provide the greater of the two columns, 25. Can someone help me with this please?
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500, align: left"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]A[/TD]
[TD]B[/TD]
[TD]Total[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]25[/TD]
[TD]15[/TD]
[TD]=formula to give me 25[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]




Thank you so much!

=max($a2:$b2)

You don't need IF/THEN, you can use MAX

=MAX(A2:B2)

Gettingbetter15, Good afternoon.

Try to use:

C1 --> =MAX(A1, B1)

Is that what you want?
I hope it helps.
