Default how do i represent numbers with letters

basically what i'm trying to do is this. i am using a spread sheet where the
only things i put in the cells is "x" or "/", x will equal 100 and / will
equal 50. what i want to do is on the last cell is make it where it will add
the numbers by the x's and /'s and then give me the total in number format.

If your data range is A1:A5 then:

=(COUNTIF(A1:A5,"/")*50)+(COUNTIF(A1:A5,"x")*100)

Or in one fell swoop

=SUMPRODUCT(COUNTIF(A1:B500,{"x","/"}),{100,50})
