Nevermind, I guess it doesn't matter if you subtract or compare because both
are within .01. Duh, I'm dumb.

Thanks alot,

Thanks Niek,

Does this subtract B2 from A2 or compare. I would like to compare. The
minus sign seems confusing.

Thank You!

A subtle difference:

=IF(ABS(A2-B2)<0.01,TRUE,FALSE)

| Hello,

| A2= $37.73
| B2= $37.74
| A3= $100.10
| B3= $100.10

| =IF(ABS(A2=B2)<0.01,TRUE,FALSE)

| Thanks in advance,
