Hi Jazzelle,
When you enter a formula in a cell using Excel, start with an = sign.
= 75 * 0.14 would be 14% of 75.
You should get 10.5 as an answer.
If you are getting a value from another cell, you would make your formula similar to the following.
=A15 * 0.14
You are getting your value from the A15 cell and then multiplying it by 0.14.
If you are trying to find a percentage from an equation like 75 * A15 = 10.5
Solve for A15 by dividing both sides of the equation by 75 to obtain A15 = 10.5/75
A15 = 0.14
I hope this is helpful.
It would be a lot easier to help if you could give more information on your project.
I am not taking your course.
