What does grouping in Google Sheets do?
Grouping data allows you to group rows/columns (that you can expand and collapse with a single click or a keyboard shortcut). This helps as you can make the data concise by hiding the grouped data and in case more detail is needed, you can quickly ungroup and show the grouped data.
Grouping allows the user to visually aggregate/group data together. When you're in the standard “Grid” layout, you can group on columns of type "Text", "Number", "Date", “Dropdown”, “Person”, and more!
Select Lookup option from the Formula Type drop down list; Then choose Find most common value from the Choose a fromula list box; In the right Arguments input section, select a list of cells that you want to extract the most common value beside the Range.
Now you can select multiple tabs in Google Sheets and perform basic actions on the selection (such as moving the tabs together, deleting, duplicating, copying, coloring, or hiding). Work in Google Sheets with confidence and make workflows faster as you perform basic actions on more than one sheet at a time.
Select the rows or columns that you want to group. You can do this easily by dragging through them. Then, right-click and choose the Group option for the rows or columns you selected. Here, we're grouping rows 2 through 11.
First, create a “by category” column in your summary table. Then, calculate the total amount you spent in each category. To do this, you could go through the spreadsheet and manually select all of the cells with “Utilities” values and add them up; then find the “Restaurant” values and sum those, and so on.
Data is grouped so that it becomes understandable and can be interpreted. Grouped data is helpful to make calculations of certain values which will help in describing and analyzing the data.
GROUPING SETS are groups, or sets, of columns by which rows can be grouped together. Instead of writing multiple queries and combining the results with a UNION, you can simply use GROUPING SETS. GROUPING SETS in SQL can be considered an extension of the GROUP BY clause.

Google Sheets Query: GROUP BY
This clause is used to group values across the selected data range by a certain condition. Note: the columns that you mention in the SELECT clause must be present in either GROUP BY clause or as part of the aggregation function (e.g. avg, count, max, min, sum).
