Meet the grid

MissionGuided

Welcome to your first week at Maple & Bean, a busy neighborhood café! The owner, Rosa, keeps the daily sales in a spreadsheet. First, let's learn to find things in it.

Every cell has a name. Click cell C1 — column C, row 1. It holds the heading “Sales ($)”. Then press Check.

Show · Cells, rows and columns

Column letter + row number = cell name

Columns are the letters across the top; rows are the numbers down the side. Where they meet is a cell, named by its column then its row.

B4 is in column B, row 4.

Using a hint costs the “no hints” star.
Select the cells the mission describes, then press Check.
