Select the cells, open the Quick Analysis tool in Excel, choose "Totals" to calculate the sum, and the program will insert a total row below the selected range. Adjust formatting as needed.

Guide to perform the task you mentioned in a general sense, assuming you're using a spreadsheet program like Microsoft Excel. Here's a general guide:

1. Select the Range:

- Click and drag to select the cells for which you want to calculate totals.

2. Quick Analysis Tool (Excel):

- If you're using Excel, after selecting the range, you may see a small icon at the bottom right corner of the selection. Click on this icon to open the Quick Analysis tool.

3. Choose Totals:

- In the Quick Analysis tool, choose the option for "Totals" or "Sum." This will automatically calculate the sum of the selected cells.

4. Insert Total Row:

- After using the Quick Analysis tool, Excel often inserts a total row below your selected range.

5. Adjust the Total Row (if needed):

- You might need to adjust the formatting of the total row or move it to a different location depending on your preferences.

If you're using a different spreadsheet program, the process might be similar, but the exact steps could vary. The key is to look for features related to calculating totals or sums, which are common in spreadsheet applications.
