valuing a labelled odds formula '15/8 I want result 1.875 ??????
I need one cell to display 15/8 thus using the label.
But I also want to use the result of 15 divided by 8 based on the value from this cell. I thought I could use the value and mid functions but it comes out in date numbers. The formula needs to apply to a range of odds....eg...100/30, 4/1, 8/13, 6/4 etc... Please help ! |
