It would have helped if you'd posted your desired formula, but...

Assume the formula would be to add cells A1 and B1 in Sheet1, and you
want the result in cell C1 in Sheet2. Then, in Sheet2!C1, enter

= Sheet1!A1 + Sheet1!B1

or

=SUM(Sheet1!A1:B1)

In C1 on sheet1 you have =A1+B1

In any cell on sheet2 you enter =sheet1!C1

Or go to a cell on sheet2 and type an = sign, then swithch to sheet1.

Select C1 and hit the <ENTER> key.

Or copy sheet1 C1 and switch to sheet2.

Select a cell then Paste Special>Paste Link
