I want to find the column number of the first cell containing a number
greater than a specified number. How would I do this?
Example: Row A1-E1 contains 5 10 15 20 25, and I want to find the
column number of the first cell greater than 10. This would be cell
C1, so I want the result "3".

try:
=MATCH(LARGE(A1:E1,COUNTIF(A1:E1,">"&10)),A1:E1,0)
