I'm normally good at this, but I have been at this for 4 hours now and I'm confusing myself.

I need the formula for price - expenses - %

I almost had it, but must have clicked the wrong option because now when I just add the price - expenses, I get a % --- what did I do wrong?

help!

Assuming you want the percentage of the price the expenses are then:

Price Expense
100 ------- 25 ------ 25.00%

=B2/A2 and format the cell as Percent.
