Remove the quotes from the 50 and 25, you are entering them as text not
as number
Also you can lose the last if statement
=IF(d250,50,IF(d225,25,a2)))

I have a formula in e2 that goes like this:
=IF(d250,"50",IF(d225,"25",IF(d2<26,a2)))

d2=b2*c2
a2 would be a number between 1 and 150

then i want to put the greater of a2 and e2 into f2
and writing like this =max(a2,e2)

it won't select the value in e2, it always elects value in a2

how can i fix ?
