Formulas and function
Formula
A formula is an expression which calculates the value of a cell. Functions are predefined formulas and are already available in Excel.An Excel Formula is entered into a spreadsheet cell by typing in the = sign,
Formula insert
If you want in insert formula in the cell , to select the cell and go to ribbon bar click formulas to select require formula.
Operator precedence
Excel uses a default order in which calculations occur. If a part of the formula is in parentheses, that
part will be calculated first. It then performs multiplication or division calculations. Once this iscomplete, Excel will add and subtract the remainder of your formula .
Function
Functions are predefined formulas and are already available in Excel.Formulas in Excel are useful perform various mathematical, statistical, and logical operations. You can type in a formula (though you have to be sure it's exactly right) or you can use Excel's preset formulas called functions.

Function insert
Every function has the same structure. For example, SUM(A1:A4). The name of this function is SUM.The part between the brackets (arguments) means we give Excel the range A1:A4 as input. Thisfunction adds the values in cells A1, A2, A3 and A4. It's not easy to remember which function and which arguments to use for each task. Fortunately, the Insert Function feature in Excel helps youwith this.if you enter =AVERAGE(A1:A56), that is a formula, using the AVERAGE function. If youenter =SUM(G4+A5) - 25 * MIN(B3:B6), that is a formula which uses both the SUM function and theMIN function, as well as standard mathematical operators (-, +, *).
