Detailed explanation-1: -The MAX function in Excel returns the highest value in a set of data that you specify. The syntax is as follows: MAX(number1, [number2], …) Where number can be represented by a numeric value, array, named range, a reference to a cell or range containing numbers.
Detailed explanation-2: -The MAX function returns the largest numeric value in the data provided. The MAX function can be used to return the largest value from any type of numeric data.
Detailed explanation-3: -The MAX function is a premade function in Excel, which finds the highest number in a range. The function ignores cells with text. It will only work for cells with numbers. Note: There is another function called MIN, which finds the lowest value in a range, the opposite of MAX.
Detailed explanation-4: -The largest value in a data set is often called the maximum (or max for short), and the smallest value is called the minimum (or min). The difference between the maximum and minimum value is sometimes called the range and is calculated by subtracting the smallest value from the largest value.
