Final answer:

Spreadsheet errors such as #VALUE, #REF, and #NAME indicate issues with inserted text in place of numbers, references to cells that do not exist, and syntax errors in formulas, respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The spreadsheet errors you have encountered correspond to different issues you might come across while working with formulas in a spreadsheet application. The correct matches between the errors and their causes are as follows:

  • #VALUE - Text is inserted into a formula that only accepts numeric arguments.
  • #REF - A formula specifies a cell that does not exist.

Spreadsheet programs show the #VALUE error when a formula includes text or incorrect types of arguments where it expects numbers. The #REF error occurs if your formula refers to a cell that has been deleted or is not available in the spreadsheet. Lastly, the #NAME error appears when there's a typo in a formula function name or when proper syntax, like a colon in a cell range, is missing.
