In this case, you have the additional formulas in F2:H2. Keep pressing F9 (recalculate) until H2 is "close" enough for you. Then you can run the Advanced Filter to show the specific items.
If this doesn't work for you, please specify what "close" means to you. Where is the original data, how many rows and columns in your table. How do you want the results shown? Filtered, highlighted, extract to another sheet? Since you have 2 criteria (count + amount), requiring some iteration, formulas might be tricky. The above method might be your best bet if you want formulas. Otherwise, I could devise a method using the Solver, or write a VBA macro.
