Hi
As you have written the formula in your subject line, the answer will be 992, since multiplication takes precedence over subtraction. i.e 1000-(200*4%) = 1000-(8) =992 I suspect that what you are really wanting, is to add 4% to the value obtained after subtracting 800 from 1000 i.e. (1000-200) = 800, 800*4% =32, 800+32 = 832 if so then use (1000-200)*(1+4%) Without the inclusion of the 1 within the second set of parentheses, you would just get the result of 32, i.e 800*4% The addition of the 1, is the same as multiply the answer by 104%, in other words raise the value by 4% -- Regards Roger Govier "deepak" wrote in message ... pls give me answer of this quetion. a b c 1000 - 200 A-b+4%add |

You haven't made it clear what you want.
Perhaps one of the following? [I have included parentheses to make it clear to you what the priority of the arithmetic operations will be, but in some cases the parentheses can be omitted because of the defined precedence of the operators.] =A1-(B1*4%) =(A1-B1)*4% =A1-(B1+(B1*4%)) or =A1-(B1*(1+4%)) =(A1-B1)*(1+4%) -- David Biddulph "deepak" wrote in message ... pls give me answer of this quetion. a b c 1000 - 200 A-b+4%add |
