This week, I have submitted a 2-for-1, in that I have a long version and a short version of solutions that both work thereby proving that you really can skin a cat two different ways.
The shorter solution focuses more on isolating the numbers required in the end and then utilizing the summation tool for that before cleaning the data later.
-The longer solution focuses on creating and cleaning the table first and then using a smooth and clean table for use by the summation table.
-Nonetheless, both use:

1 Multi-Row Formula
2 Formula
Multiple Data Cleaning Tools
