Formulas are instructions that you enter to perform calculations. For example, enter the number 350 in cell B1; enter the number 450 in cell B2; enter the formula =B1+B2 in cell B3. The value 800 is displayed in cell B3. If a value changes in cell B1 or B2, the formula will always add the two and show the correct sum in cell B3. If B1 is 25, B2 is 20, and B3 has the formula =B1-B2, what is the sum that will show in B3?
-
45
-
5
-
-5
-
None of the above
