Re: Need help getting accounting software into Excel
Could the number have been 5574 rather than 5447? The reason I ask is 24x36 is 5574 sq. centimeters. Try this formula while in excel: =((cell ref.*.394)*40%) This gives you one dimension =((cell ref.*.394)*60%) gives you the other dimension. Example (5574*.394)*40%) = 24 inches ((5574*.394)*60%) = 36 inches To convert centimeters to inches multiply by .394 24 and 36 are 40% and 60% respectively of a whole.
