Based on the provided image, the formula in cell A49 is =COUNTIF(A43:A47, "np*").

Let's break down the formula:

COUNTIF is a function that counts the number of cells within a range that meet a given criteria.

A43:A47 is the range of cells being evaluated. This range contains the values "npab", "npce", "npfo", "npbb", and "norp".

"np*" is the criteria. The asterisk (*) is a wildcard character that represents any sequence of characters. Therefore, the criteria "np*" means "count any cell that starts with 'np'".

Now, let's check which cells in the range A43:A47 meet this criteria:

A43: "npab" - Starts with "np". Yes.

A44: "npce" - Starts with "np". Yes.

A45: "npfo" - Starts with "np". Yes.

A46: "npbb" - Starts with "np". Yes.

A47: "norp" - Does not start with "np". No.

The cells that meet the criteria are A43, A44, A45, and A46. There are four such cells.

Therefore, the COUNTIF formula will return the value 4.
