Looking for basic multiplaction formula
You don't need the parenthesis, though that shouldn't stop it working.
As long as your numbers really are numbers (=ISNUMBER(A5) in any cell will
tell you if what is in cell A5 is), then as long as your cells D14:D18 are
formatted as numeric or general, then in cell D14 you should be able to put
=A5*D5 and drag down and have it work.
If not then describe EXACTLY what you are seeing vs what you expected
