Default Calculation with Decimal

if I have a measurement of 1.5" I want it to subtract the two values

Subtract what two values?

Can you post several examples and what result you expect? Need more detailed
info.

I am using Excel 2007 and I have a chart with measurements associated with
gallons (ie. 1" = 10, 2" = 20, 3" = 25). I want to type in a measurement
and
have it calculate the gallons. I know I can use Vlookup, but if I have a
measurement of 1.5" I want it to subtract the two values and multiple by
.5
and add that number to the first number. I would also like this to be
available for other decimals besides .5. It may be wishful thinking about
doing this, but I would like to get this set up.
Thanks
