2. What is difference between absolute referencing and relative referencing?
There are two types of cell references: relative and absolute. Relative and absolute
references behave differently when copied and filled to other cells. Relative
references change when a formula is copied to another cell. Absolute references, on the
other hand, remain constant, no matter where they are copied

A cell reference or relative cell reference describes how far away a cell or group of cells is
from another cell in the same spreadsheet. When dealing with a spreadsheet formula,
the relative cell reference is the default behavior of a formula

An absolute reference is an cell reference that intentionally won't change when an formula is
copied. There are many situations where absolute references are helpful. ... To make
a reference absolute, you need to add dollar signs to the address, one to lock the row, and
one to lock the column.
