FINV
The FINV function returns the inverse of the F probability distribution.
FINV(prob, d-f-numerator, d-f-denominator)
 prob: A probability associated with the distribution. prob is a number value and
must be greater than 0 and less than or equal to 1.
 d-f-numerator: The degrees of freedom to include as the numerator. d-f-numerator
is a number value and must be greater than or equal to 1. If there is a decimal
portion, it is ignored.
 d-f-denominator: The degrees of freedom to include as the denominator. d-f-
denominator is a number value and must be greater than or equal to 1. If there is a
decimal portion, it is ignored.
Examples
=FINV(0.77, 1, 2) returns 0.111709428782599.
=FINV(0.77, 1, 1) returns 0.142784612191674.
=FINV(0.77, 2, 1) returns 0.34331253162422.
