Thanks again.

If *neither* cell contains a number then the formula returns a blank. The

is the syntax for "blank". If you'd rather have a 0 returned:
=IF(COUNT(A2),A2/4.54,IF(COUNT(B2),B2*0.83,0))
Or, you could return an informational message like "no value entered":
=IF(COUNT(A2),A2/4.54,IF(COUNT(B2),B2*0.83,"no value entered"))
Using the COUNT function ensures that a number has been entered in one or
the other cells. It prevents errors if someone accidentally enters a text
string or if one of the cells already contains an error. It may not be
necessary but it makes things robust and doesn't add undue complexity to
the
formula.

One question re the answer: I understand what is being "said" except
the
double quotation marks.

I'm just learning to use Excel.
I want to enter data in either column A (litres) OR column B (US
gallons).
Column C will convert to imperial gallons.
I would like to create a formula in column C that would result in
this
logic:
IF there is data in cell "A(n)" then do calculation A(n)/4.54, if no
data
in A(n) and there is data in cell "B(n)" then do calculation
B(n)*.83
Hello T. Valko.
I just went through the formula on the discussion of 08-31-08 responding to
dyrret asking:
"I'm just learning to use Excel.

So do I. I'm learning use Excel WorkSheet. But instead of a column as
mentioned before, I need a single cell like
AB shows on decimal equivalent of minutes or hour with minutes, example,
AC -- 15 minutes = mathematical formula would be, 15 x .01666667 = .25---
this decimal equivalent
of 15 min
AC -- 1hour 35minutes (1.35) = 1.583 this results on AB, and minutes on AC.
I tried modified the one suggested here before but failed.
Any help will be significant.
Thanks T. Valko, I already found it,
=IF(COUNT(AB19),AB19*(AC9),"<<Enter Time").
