subtotaling

Adding up portions

Subtotaling is adding up part of a larger set of figures to get an intermediate sum.

A cashier subtotals items before tax; a spreadsheet subtotals each department's expenses before the grand total.

Also spelled subtotalling.

I'm still subtotaling the regional numbers.
