And if it's equal to 49?

The first step in writing a formula is to get clear on what you're
trying to do.

Sorry if question is not clear. if cell is 48" or less I want to add 3" to
the cell examples (48+3=51) (25 + 3 =28) if cell is 49 or greater the I want
to add 6" to cell (50 +6 =56) ... in one cell (c11) I will put the number in
a different cell (D15) I want the answer

Try this in cell C11

=IF(C11="","No data",IF(C11<49,C11+3,C11+6))

=if(C11<=48,C11+3,C11+6)

Note that you *still* have not specified what to do if the number is
between 48 and 49, so it's possible the above won't do what you want
if C11 is 48.2.

A: Maybe because some people are too annoyed by top posting.
Q: Why do I not get an answer to my question(s)?
A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
