Default How do I subtract in Excel xp

First, enter a formula. All formulas in Excel begin with an = sign. Then,
you can subtract numbers or cell references by using the - sign. For example:

=A1-B1

This subtracts the value in Cell B1 from the Value in Cell A1

=C5-4

This subtracts 4 from the value in C5

Also make sure your cells are not formatted as text. Formulas entered as
text will not be evaluated by Excel.
