When you use Microsoft Excel, You will sometimes find that the numbers are not calculated properly. This is mainly because of the cell format.

Excel accepts Text and the Number input, it has the great capability to interpret between two. All the Excel cells are in General format, when you start working on any Excel sheet It automatically allots the format to each cell based on the characters inside.

If you see any cells containing the numbers but are aligned left side, you need to understand that the cell format is in Text mode. Whenever you see the numbers in any cells arranged in right side, The cell format is in Number.

The calculation only works if you have the cell in numbers format
