You’ll need to click Blank workbook (PC) or New and then Blank Workbook (Mac) to continue. If you have an existing presentation you’d like to open, double-click it to open it in Excel.
You can repeat this process with as many numbers as you like, as long as the “*” symbol is between each of the numbers you want to multiply.
For example, typing “A1” into the cell sets A1’s value as the first number in your formula.
For example, typing “D5” into the cell would make your formula look like this: =A1D5. You can add more than two cell names to this formula, though you’ll need to type “” between subsequent cell names.
When you click the cell with the formula result, the formula itself will display in the Excel address bar.
For example, you might type “A1” here.
In the example, typing “A5” would set up the formula to multiply the contents of A1, A2, A3, A4, and A5 together.
If you change the contents of a cell within the multiplication range, the value in your selected cell will also change.
