Similarly, you can apply the same copy and paste formula in the cell D3 and E3.


              Using the Fill Handle
              The fill handle is the small black square located in the bottom-right corner of a selected cell or range. It can
              be used to quickly extend data or formulas into adjacent cells.
              (i) Use of Fill Handle for Copying Formula

              Step 1:  Enter a formula in a cell. In our case, we have inserted the formula(=A2*B2) in cell C2.
              Step 2:   Select the cell C2 and click on the small square (fill handle) at the bottom-right corner of the selected
                       cells.

              Step 3:   Drag it down or across to fill the formula in the required cells. In our case, we dragged the fill handle
                       down to cell C5 and then released the mouse button.























              (ii) Uses of Fill Handle for Number Series
              Step 1:  Enter the first value of the series in a cell. In our case, we have inserted the value 5 in cell A1.

              Step 2:   Enter the next value of the series in the cell below or to the right. In our case, we have inserted the
                       value 10 in cell A2.
              Step 3:   Select cells A1 and A2 and click on the small square (fill handle) at the bottom-right corner of the
                       selected cells.
              Step 4:   Drag it down or across to fill the series. In our case, we dragged the series down to cell A5 and then
                       released the mouse button.
