IF function formula
 I'm looking to create a nested IF function.

Here is an example


We have
Jack, Age 6
Jill, Age 13
Bill Age 18
Martha Age 26
Jeremy Age 64
and there are several groups
If your aged between

5-10
Your group Apple
10-15
Group Banana
15-20
Group Coconut
20-30
Group Dog
30-300
Group Elephant

So i would want the spreadsheet to realise Jack is 6 years old and belongs in the group apple, jeremy for elephant and so on.

If anyone could provide me with the formula of how to do this I would be very grateful.
