BINOM.INV Function

The BINOM.INV function is one of the statistical functions. It is used to return the smallest value for which the cumulative binomial distribution is greater than or equal to a criterion value.

The BINOM.INV function syntax is:

BINOM.INV(trials, probability-s, alpha)

where

trials is the number of trials, a numeric value greater than 0.

probability-s is the success probability of each trial, a numeric value greater than 0 but less than 1.

alpha is the criterion, a numeric value greater than 0 but less than 1.

The numeric values can be entered manually or included into the cells you make reference to.
