To activate the AutoSum feature, Samantha needs to click in the cell below the group of cells she wants to add. This is because when she clicks on the AutoSum button, Excel will automatically select the cells above the active cell and display the sum in the active cell. Therefore, the active cell needs to be below the group of cells she wants to add.
