      • / is used for division
      • ^ is used for exponentiation
    • Basic Formulas:
      • The = sign is used to begin a formula
      • A1+B1 adds values in cells A1 and B1
      • A1*B1 multiplies values in cells A1 and B1
    • Functions:
      • SUM(range) calculates the sum of a range of cells
      • AVERAGE(range) calculates the average of a range of cells
      • COUNT(range) counts the number of cells in a range that contain numbers
      • IF(logical_test, [value_if_true], [value_if_false]) tests a condition and returns one value if true and another value if false
