If cell equals a certain value, automatically return whatever is in the cell 2 columns over in the same row
I'm looking for help with creating a formula. If a cell equals a certain value, how do I return whatever is in the cell 2 columns over in the same row? For example, if A=VALUE, Return C from the same row. In the example posted, this would mean:
- If A=24, return -23.57%
- If A=25, return 7.48%
- If A=26, return 7.83%
I want to apply this to an entire columns.

You can use VLOOKUP to do this.
For example, if the value you call "A" is in cell E1, and the table of data in your example is in range A1:C6, you can use the formula:
=VLOOKUP(E1, A1:C6, 3, FALSE)
This searches the first column of data (column A) for the value in cell E1 and returns the corresponding value from the third column (column C).
FALSE as the fourth argument says to only look for an exact match. If you use TRUE instead, your data must be sorted on the value in the first column and the function will search for the closest value.
