How do I add a conditional formatting rule to a Google Sheets spreadsheet?
If you are working with a Google Sheets spreadsheet, you may want to add a conditional formatting rule to make it easier to analyze the data. Conditional formatting allows you to apply formatting to cells based on certain criteria, such as highlighting cells that contain a certain value or color-coding cells based on their values. This can help you quickly identify trends or patterns in your data, making it easier to draw conclusions and make decisions.
