Answer: How do you make cells smaller?
 

To make cells smaller in Excel, you can adjust the row height or column width. Here's how:

1. Adjusting row height:
   - Select the row(s) you want to adjust.
   - Hover your mouse over the bottom border of the selected row(s) until the cursor turns into a double arrow.
   - Click and drag the border up or down to adjust the height of the row(s).
   - Release the mouse button when you're satisfied with the new height.
   
2. Adjusting column width:
   - Select the column(s) you want to adjust.
   - Hover your mouse over the right border of the selected column(s) until the cursor turns into a double arrow.
   - Click and drag the border left or right to adjust the width of the column(s).
   - Release the mouse button when you're satisfied with the new width.
   
   You can also adjust the row height or column width using the
   Formula:

You could also try zooming out from the View menu. 80% zoom is a good fit I
like to work with.

Of course, if you work with any non-sheet objects (shapes and charts),
working at other than 100% sometimes has strange side-effects. I used to
work at 90% all the time, but not any more.
