Default Text & formula in same cell

How do you mix text and formulas??

I want the cell C46 to have the text 'ABS' and the the formula '=Core!D55'
to the right.

Since the formula is just a reference to an average, the output of the cell
should look like this:
ABS 8.5

Thanks!!!

That worked great, is there anyway to format the number to 1 decimal place?
The average is really long!

Try this:

="ABS" & ROUND(Core!D55,1)
