 Division and Percent

Now move to cell A21 and type in the word Percent. We're going to calculate a fun percentage to show you how division works and give you some more practice with numbers.

Now move to cell C21 and using either the Type-In Method or the Point Method divide ( / ) the amount for Income in cell C9 by the amount for Expenses in cell C17.  

This will give you a horrid number so why not put a percent symbol with it.  Now we’ll repeat what we did above to format our $$$$.

Point to cell C21 and click the right mouse button. Point to Format Cells, -then the Number tab –then click-on Percent.  Select zero ( O ) Decimal Places.  Click OK.  Ta Da !!! a %.

                  [The formula should look like =C9/C17]
