The question asks whether you can fill column E (E2:E21) using an IF function (or nested IF) instead of a VLOOKUP, given that port codes 200-499 map to the Northern Region and codes 500-999 map to the Southern Region.
Option 1: 'impossible to do in this scenario.' This is incorrect because the mapping can be expressed with IF logical tests (e.g., IF(code between 200 and 499, 'Northern', IF(code between 500 and 999, 'Southern', ''))), so it is indeed possible to implement with IF.
Option 2: 'possible to do in this scenario.' This is correct since a nested IF (or a single IF with logical tests) can categorize codes into Northern or Southern based on the specified ranges.
Option 3: 'possible to do if and only if you change all port codes (cells A2:A21) to either 200 or 500.' This is not required; you can test the actual ranges (200-499 and 500-999) without altering the data. For example, you can use IF(A2>=200, A2<=499, 'Northern', 'Southern') or equivalent nested checks. So this conditional is overly restrictive and incorrect.
Option 4: 'possible to do if and only if a COUNTIFS is included in a nested IF function.' COUNTIFS is not necessary for this straightforward range-based categorization. A simple IF with range checks suffices, so this statement is inaccurate.
In summary, the only option that accurately reflects the feasibility is that it is possible to complete column E using IF (or nested IF) without VLOOKUP, matching the Northern/Southern mapping based on the 200–499 and 500–999 ranges.
