Hi all,

I'm new to this forum and also to excel.

I am trying to enter what is a very simple formula to work out percentages. I can do it easily on a calculator but because there is a lot of working out to do I thought it would be quicker using excel.

This is an example of what I am trying to do: =(C2/2)+B2/D2*100

The values are: C2=5, B2=28 and D2=38, so by my calculations the answer would be 80.26% however excel seems to get 74.93%.

Does anybody know why this is??
