Default Can I use words and numbers in the same cell in a formula?

For example:

I want column A to read "5 gal" and column B read "$25.00" and column C=A/B.
But when I enter that formula it won't compute beause in column A i have
"gal". I know an easy solution would be to add another column to read the
"gal" but I would really like to find a way to only have the 3 columns.

Any help please would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
