Or enter the number in A1 and in B1 use the formula =A1*1.30
The asterisk (star) is the multiplication symbol used by most computer
programs

I am trying to create cells that will make calculations for me. For
example, I want to enter the number 140, and have the cell automatically
make the calculation to 30 percent of that number. Any suggestions? Thanks.
