Count cells that are numbers in a range
You can display the number of cells that are in a particular range by using the COUNTIFS function.
This function uses two criteria to satisfy two conditions.
The number must be greater than or equal to the smallest number.
The number must be less than or equal to the largest number.
Example
Lets assume the ranges have been entered into a column.
The range has been entered with a dash in between the smallest number and the largest number.
The first step is to extract the smallest and largest numbers from these values.
The smallest number can be obtained using the TEXTBEFORE function.
The largest number can be obtained using the TEXTAFTER function.

Once we have the smallest and largest values we can use these numbers to create our criteria.
The first criteria is any value greater than or equal to the smallest number.
The second criteria is any value less than or equal to the largest number.
