Question: what is the formula to add and subtract in excel?
Answer: To add two numbers in Microsoft Excel, type the formula =X+Y into the cell where you want the answer displayed. X and Y can be numbers, cell addresses (e.g. G4), or formulas. If you enter =4+2 in a spreadsheet cell, Excel returns an answer of 6. In the worksheet above, the formula in cell C2 is =B1+B2.
