Title: Excel anyone
Post by: SPKmes on June 23, 2008, 06:08:51 PM

When using Excel formulations on the spread sheet I am able to add, subtract, and multiply. I now have a need to divide however.........  I can multiply using decimal places but this is not straight forward for others to understand when looking at the sheet. Is there such a thing as division on a keyboard or in Excel itself?

Division is forward slash (/). For example, fx=B1/C1

Not sure if you will find this usefull, but I use this tutorial as a reminder when I haven't used excel for awhile.
