Default converting text cell to numeric cell

In a column (Excel2007) that is correctly formatted as numeric, one cell has
=INT(15/0.85+0.5) and has correct format as numeric, another cell has
=INT(75/0.85+0.5) and is formatted as text €“ both cells show actual values
(not formula). All the cells(over 1000) in this column have similar content,
and all except TWO have correct numeric format.
I have tried, without success, various ways to change the 2 text cells to
numeric .
I am baffled by this (why these 2 cells are different and why I cannot
change their format).
Any comments/suggestions ?
SM
