I have created a chart with constantly changing values. At the bottom, I have a formula combining each column of data into an easy to read format. At the top, I have a label for each column of data. I want to write a formula that finds the largest number in "B10:F10" and display the label for that column. I am not very experienced with Sheets, so any and all help is welcome and appreciated. Thank you all!!

=INDEX(B1:F1,0,MATCH(MAX(B10:F10),B10:F10,0))

MAX(B10:F10) will find out the maximum of the numbers

MATCH(MAX(B10:F10),B10:F10,0) will give you the position of the maximum number

INDEX(B1:F1,0,MATCH(MAX(B10:F10),B10:F10,0)) with starting point as B1, it will move the number of columns corresponding to the maximum number and give you the heading related to it.

try:

={INDIRECT(ADDRESS(6, 1+MATCH(MAX(B10:F10), B10:F10, 0))), MAX(B10:F10)}
