TASK – BEST BIRTHDAY EVER

What could be better than Excel Esports on your birthday? In this case, you will answer a number of questions around birthdays and see how many lucky people had their birthdays on an Excel Esports event day this year. In the data below, you are given names with dates of birth. Determine when their birthday is in 2024 and answer the questions on the “Birthday Case Answers” tab. For the later questions, you will need to use the information found on the “Calendar” tab that details Excel Esports events in 2024. Note that weekend days are Sunday and Saturday (WEEKDAY() results of 1 and 7) when no [return type] is specified (i.e., the default option).
