Excel help needed

Any help will be appreciated.

I'd like to divide rows of cells by certain number K

row A contains variables row B contains below equation

What I did was do =Sum(A1/Z1) where Z1 contains the number K


If I drag to copy, it only does copy first row. i.e. it goes =Sum(B1/??)

I'd like to copy it so that the second variable is fixed at Z1 while first one moves from B1 to B2 to B3 and so on

 
To freeze the reference to Z1, enter it as $Z$1 in your formula. No matter where you copy the formula, the denominator will always be Z1. This is called an absolute reference to Z1.
 
FYI you can use the F4 key when inputting a formula to put those $ 'anchors' in the formula as you enter it
