Method 1:
Click on any cell and press Ctrl and F to open the Find and Replace window quickly.
Hit [Choose Format From Cell] and we select green here.
Click on Find All.
We need to press Ctrl and A to select all the green cells now and then go to the Name Box to edit “Green”. Type =SUM(Green) in a cell and press Enter key. Bingo, we got the sum here.
You can use this method to sum by color or even format.
