Existing fields and new fields
Now that you've created targeted subsets of the original data by applying filters to obtain data that has a year built, gross square feet, a sale price greater than $100,000 and a unique address, additional research can be applied.
Your supervisor would like to format the RecordID field by adding leading zeroes to match the existing field within a database. They are also interested in finding the highest sale price per gross square foot of this updated property dataset.
The Formula tool is a perfect solution for updating the existing RecordID field, and creating a new calculated field of "Price per Sq Ft"!
