    Write number 4 in one (any) cell
    Copy that cell
    Select column (you want to multiply)
    Right click -> Paste spetial -> Multiply
    Never use Merged Cells in Excel

    Sure

    Type 4 in an empty cell, then copy the cell.

    Select the range you want to multiply, then right click and pastespecial > multiply.
