VLOOKUP: Percentage Breakdown

[oilli]

Hi guys,

I have a spreadsheet with multiple customers and price they paid for different items.
I am trying to find what percentage they spent on each items Can it be done with vlookup?

Here is an example:
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Name[/TD]
[TD]Item[/TD]
[TD]Price[/TD]
[TD]Percentage Breakdown[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]John[/TD]
[TD]apple[/TD]
[TD]2[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Tom[/TD]
[TD]apple[/TD]
[TD]3[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Amy[/TD]
[TD]apple[/TD]
[TD]4[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]John[/TD]
[TD]banana[/TD]
[TD]5[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Tom[/TD]
[TD]banana[/TD]
[TD]6[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Amy[/TD]
[TD]banana[/TD]
[TD]7[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

As you can see, John spent 2/7 of his money on apple and 5/7 on banana.

How can I do this with excel? What formula should I use?

Thank you in advance for support!

Hi,

Welcome to the forum. If your values are in row 2, you can use the below formula and then copy it to cells below :

=C2/SUMIF($A$2:$A$7,A2,$C$2:$C$7)
