lose the quote marks, SUM doesn't like text.

I want to use the numeric value returned in a cell by the following function
as part of a horizontal SUM function:
=IF(C2<2,"50",IF(C2=2,"25",IF(C23,"0")))
As is, the SUM ignores the value returned by this function.
How do I get the SUM to recognize the numeric value?
Thanks
