Excel formulas are a powerful tool for performing calculations and analyzing data. Unfortunately, if a formula isn't set up correctly, it won't show the correct result or even any result at all. This can be incredibly frustrating, but luckily there are some steps you can take to fix your formula and get the right answer.

The first step is to check that the syntax of your formula is correct. This means making sure that all the parentheses, commas and operators are in the right place. Also double check that any cell references are pointing to the right cells. If they're not, Excel won't be able to calculate the result.

Another potential cause of Excel formulas not showing results is that you've used a number as a text value. In this case, you'll need to convert the number back into a numerical value using the VALUE function. For example, if you have the text value "2", you would use the formula =VALUE("2") to convert it into a numerical value.

Finally, if you're still having trouble with your formula, you can try entering each part of the formula separately. That will usually help you identify the part of the formula that's causing the issue. You can also use the Evaluate Formula tool to step through the calculation and see what Excel is doing at each stage.

In conclusion, if your Excel formulas are not showing results, it could be due to incorrect syntax, text values or just an error in the calculation. By following these tips, you should be able to identify and fix the issue so that your formula returns the expected result.
