In exactly the same way. The operation between cells in the copied range
(source) is performed with cells in the destination range. The dimensions of
the source and destination ranges are the same, or the source range is a single
cell and the destination has multiple cells.

In your example, the source range has only one cell. Each cell of the
destination would receive the min or max (as selected) of that cell with the
source cell. If you like, you can think of this like saturating a signal in an
electrical circuit. The set of destination values (the signal) would be limited
on the low side by the Maximum operation with a lower limit (source) cell, and
on the high end by the Minimum operation with an upper limit (source) cell.
