Default Format issue to linked cells

Extend the number of visible decimal places in C2, D2, and Data!F14
You'll see that it isn't exactly 80.60

Hi,
All the following cells are formatted at standard Numeric, 2 decimal
places.
I have 2 cellsC2 and D2 and type in the value of 80.60.
I use =SUM(C2:D2) in Cell E2 - the result in Cell E2 is 161.20 (of
course!!).

OK, now I reference a field in another worksheet with the same values so,
C2 & D2 now read =Data!F14 (where Data!F14 has the value of 80.60).
c2 & d2 DISPLAY 80.60. However, Cell E2 now displays 161.19.

Can anyone help???
