Calculated Question – Sub

Calculated questions allow you to calculate a figure based on responses to one or more questions.

Calculated questions include the following types:

The ‘Sub’ type adds together the answers of selected questions and subtracts an entered factor to give you a result.

e.g. Q1 = 2, Q2 = 4, Q3 = 2, Factor = 4

Divide = Q1 + Q2 + Q3 = 8, subtract 4 = 4
