"It's not working" means what?

Wrong answer? No answer?

It should work ,but you don't need the SUM Function

=(A1*A2)+A5

Assuming A1 has a numeric quantity, A2 has a numeric price and A5 has a
numeric tax.

=(12*45.99)+25.00

Or do you have a tax rate in A5? Like 10%

=(A1*A2)*1.10

This should be easy, I want to multiply the quantity of a product by the

I am using/attempting this: =SUM(A1*A2+A5)

But it's not working so apparently I am doing something wrong.

Help?
