Variables should be kept out of the string and combined using &..

Public Sub test()
hv = Range("aa1")
Cells(i + 5, 23).Offset(step, 0).Formula = "=+RC[-1]*52*" & hv
End Sub

Range("aa1") contains the value 269.1. The value in RC[-1] is 3758.7.

The cell in position 5,23++ does not recognize hv as a number but just shows
"hv" with the rest of the formula. How can I fix this?
