    Changing entire column data

    I have a quick question for anyone who can help. I have a large data set that
    I need to convert. To explain this I have three columns with 450 data points
    in each. In one of the columns I need to change each data entry by the same
    amount. (x+25)/25. I am wondering if there is a way to have excel change each
    point by that amount, rather than doing it by hand.
    -Thanks in advance for the help

    1. Key 25 and 1 in 2 open cells.
    2. Copy the cell with 25.
    3. Select the range of data to update
    4. Go to Edit > Paste Special. Select "Divide". OK
