Calculate sum based on a column

B C
01 7%
01 7%
01 7%
02 5%
02 5%
02 5%
03 7%
03 7%
03 7%

 

I want to calculate sum of B but I want to take only one instance of B for every A. For eg: it should be (7+5+7) ie 7 for A-01 5 for A-02 7 for A-03

You could try something like

 

=sum(aggr(avg(C), B))

 

Alternatively, you can replace avg with min, max or only, depending on what you want to happen if there are multiple values in column c for a given value in column b? Below I altered your example slightly, so that you can see what the output would be if for B=01, if you have two different values in column C
