Beginners Question
 

I know how to add two cells but I would like the cells to have a title within
the cell. Something like 8.5 Hrs, or 32 steaks. Something like that.

Thank you in Advance

Hi

FormatCellsNumberCustom
#.0 "Hrs"
or General "Steaks

The part before the text can be formatted in any of the standard number
formats.
It will appear as 32 Steaks, but all that will be held in the cell is 32,
which can then be used in further calculations if required.

In the same way you can format a number to have a $ sign or % sign you can
create a custom format with whatever characters you want...

Format | Cells... | Number tab - Custom
where it says Type:
0.0 "Hrs"
Ok
