Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -To do this, you’ll need to change the cell reference to an absolute reference by adding dollar signs before the row and column (for example, $D$2). Although you can type the dollar signs manually, the F4 key on your keyboard allows you to add both dollar signs with a single keystroke.

Detailed explanation-2: -There is a shortcut for placing absolute cell references in your formulas! When you are typing your formula, after you type a cell reference-press the F4 key. Excel automatically makes the cell reference absolute! By continuing to press F4, Excel will cycle through all of the absolute reference possibilities.

Detailed explanation-3: -F4 is a predefined keyboard shortcut in Excel that repeats your last command or action.

Detailed explanation-4: -Excel absolute cell reference (with $ sign) The dollar sign fixes the reference to a given cell, so that it remains unchanged no matter where the formula moves. In other words, using $ in cell references allows you to copy the formula in Excel without changing references.

Detailed explanation-5: -Press F4 key once: The cell reference changes from A1 to $A$1 (becomes ‘absolute’ from ‘relative’). Press F4 key two times: The cell reference changes from A1 to A$1 (changes to mixed reference where the row is locked).
