Default How do figure excel formula out?

I'm taking an excel class & the ? is "if you enter 5B21C2 in cell B1 of a
worksheet the formula is replaced by the # 125 when you press enter. What
happened? The worksheet is hypethetical. Then the next ? is to use same
worksheet, change the # in cell B2 from 55 to 65. What happens to the # in
cell B1 & why. The info I found doesn't tell how to figure the first formula
so everything else doesn't make sense to me. HELP!

I'm sorry to say that your comprehension of XL is soooo bad, that you can't
pose an accurate, intelligent question.

Does 5B21C2, in *exactly* that form, mean something to you, pertaining to
XL???

I suppose 5B21C2 could be an Islamic calendar date, and 125 it's
representation in General number format. That's all I can think of.
