Default numeric values in a chart

I need to display a value from the spreadsheet into a chart (for example
values that are not captured by the chart). I tried with the camera and the
copy link images but it did not work

You mean as a text label? Select the chart, click in the formula bar, type
=, then select the cell with the value and hit Enter. A textbox will appear
in the middle of the chart linked to the cell. Move and format it as needed.

Calculate the value in a cell, then use the protocol I described to display
it in a textbox.
