Question

which method is an easy way to find a short description of a function?
in the insert function dialog box, click the function name to get a short description.
open help from the backstage view to find a list of functions.
insert the function and right - click it in the cell to access a description.
use the search tool to find a list of functions and their descriptions.

Explanation:

In spreadsheet software (like Excel), the "Insert Function" dialog box is designed to help users quickly understand functions. When you click on a function name within it, a short description appears. Opening Help from Backstage view gives general help, not quick function - specific short descriptions. Inserting the function and right - clicking is not a standard way for a short description. The Search tool gives a list but is more for finding functions rather than a quick short description when you already know the function name.

Answer:

In the Insert Function dialog box, click the function name to get a short description.
