Default formulas

I need help with an excel formula. I put in the formula =A1*.25. When I type
100 in the A1 block it removes the formula and leave the number 100, when it
should calculate 75. Am I doing something wrong?

Put that formula in Cell B1 and then add 100 to cell A1. Now in Cell A1 you
will have 100 and in Cell B1 you will have 25. I am not too sure where you
get the 75 from so if I am missing something just let me know...
