Trella,

Here's a way that maintains the value in the cell (not a string that
includes "This totals..." So another formula can refer to it, if necessary,
to get the value.

Put this in the cell:
=ROUND(SUM(G28:G32),2)

Format (Format - Cells - Number - Custom):
"This totals need to consider" #,##0.00
