Perhaps you can just have 30% in A1 but use

=B1*(A1+1)

I need to hide part of a number.
Example: I would like to multiply B1 by A1 (A1 contains the number "130%")
but would like A1 to show the number as "30%". Is there a way to hide the 1
in 130% using the custom number format? Or is there another workaround?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
