how do i add and subtract
Hi Kim
If first number is in cell A1 and second number is in B1. Then put =A1+B1 in say, C1. this will add the 2 numbers. To Subtract use =A1-B1 To divide use =A1/B1 To Multiply use =A1*B1 HTH Michael M "kim" wrote: i am new at this, how do i add and subtract and get the answer. |

: i am new at this, how do i add and subtract and get the answer. Meaning no disrespect, you're asking "tree" questions but I think you need first to look at some "forest". If you approach Excel as a set of tiny details you're going to have nothing but frustration. Get an overview of what Excel is and what sort of things it's designed to do, then you'll find a lot of questions answer themselves. One of the "Dummies" books might be a good choice, even though the title is really bad. -- Stan Brown, Oak Road Systems, Tompkins County, New York, USA http://OakRoadSystems.com/ "If there's one thing I know, it's men.

Nice suggestion here. Being new to this forum, I observed that most, if not
all, who post are not only knowledgeable and helpful but also kind and considerate in their language. I appreciate this. I'm learning a lot by just reading. Thanks to all who participate.
