Hello
This guide will help you get started with Excel by showing you how to enter numbers and use a formula to calculate their sum.
Let's get started
In this guide, we will learn how to use Microsoft Excel. Microsoft Excel is spreadsheet software that lets you work with numbers, financial projections, and more.
You can create formulas and add anything you want. This allows you to see how your financial forecasting changes over time, for example. Excel is very generic. To get started, click the Excel icon in the dock. Then choose a blank workbook and click Create.
Next, select the first cell. For example, add two numbers in Excel.
As mentioned before, you can do more complex tasks in Excel. For now, we'll just add two numbers.
We'll enter the number 10. I type 10 and press Enter.
Enter the number 20 and press Enter. Select the last cell where you want the sum. Press the equal sign on your keyboard, type SUM, open parentheses, then click and drag to select the two numbers.
When we click Enter, we see that we get 30.
This is how you add two numbers in Excel. If you have any questions, you can reach out to support documentation at mycompany.com.
