then format E10 as percentage

hi
e9 cannot contain both 35 and 1 so...
maybe with 35 in e8 and 1 in e9 then
=E9/E8
equals .0286 format as percent = 2.86%
and since you didn't say which is to be a percent of the other...
=E8/E9
equals 35 or format as percent 3500.00%

Hi Terry,
Format E10 to display %, selecting as many decimal points as you
require.
Then in cell E10 write:
=F9/E9

Try this, but it may not be quite that simple, depending on what the
35 and the 1 actually represent. If this doesn't work, supply a bit
more detail about your data.
Dave.
