I need to count scores less than 98 from last 5 months. After each month, a new month is added so it is a dynamic table range. Could you please suggest me an offset formula, not so complicated one

The table I've pasted shows months in one row and scores in other row. I need an offset formula to count how many cells from past 5 cells are below 98%

User

=OFFSET($D$17,0,1,COUNTIF(D17:M17, "<0.98"),-5)

You need to know how many cel'l's in the matix are below 98% right?
User

This is a dynamic table and a new month will be added every month so the last 5 columns would change every month
User
20/02/2018 - 10:46
yes, how many cells below 98%
User
20/02/2018 - 10:46
but normal countif won't work as the table will add new column every month
User
20/02/2018 - 10:47
it needs to be mix of offset and countif
Excelchat Expert
20/02/2018 - 10:47
and you would need only the last 5 month's not the previous?
