Answer:

To copy a worksheet in Excel, click the worksheet tab and hold Ctrl while dragging it to a new location, creating a duplicated sheet within the workbook.

A worksheet (also known as a spreadsheet) consists of cells in which you can enter and calculate data. The cells are organized into columns and rows. A worksheet is always stored in a workbook. A workbook can contain many worksheets. Think of it as a book.

In your Excel spreadsheet, locate the specific sheet that you want to duplicate. Hold down the Ctrl key on your keyboard. Click and drag the sheet tab that you want to duplicate to the right or left. When you release the mouse button, this will create an exact copy of the sheet.

You can copy a worksheet within a workbook by clicking on the worksheet tab, pressing and holding Ctrl, and then dragging a copy of the worksheet to its new location. When you press and hold the Ctrl key while dragging the worksheet, a small plus sign appears near the cursor, indicating that you are creating a copy of the worksheet rather than moving it. This method is useful for duplicating data, formatting, or calculations within the same workbook without having to recreate the worksheet from scratch.
