Default why will my function not work? it is just auto sum.

Your cell was probably formatted as text before you entered the formula.
Format the cell as General, then go into the formula bar and confirm the
formula again.

All I am trying to do is use auto sum. Why does it just show the actual
function and not the answer? Thanks.
