There are many websites in here that will teach you, depending on what you want to calculate and what form the results will take (percentage, etc.).

IF you plan to use Excel in the future, there are good "Excel for Dummies" type books in the bookstore, I recommend them. There are so many things you can do that you cannot possibly remember, and you need a reference.

To calculate data using Excel, you can follow these steps:

1. Open Microsoft Excel and create a new worksheet.
2. Enter your data into the appropriate cells. For example, if you want to add numbers in cells A1 and A2, you would enter the numbers in those cells.
3. Decide where you want to display the calculated result. For example, if you want the result to be displayed in cell A3, click on that cell.
4. To perform calculations, you can use Excel's built-in functions, such as SUM, AVERAGE, COUNT, etc. Here's how you can use the SUM function as an example:
- Type "=" in the cell where you want the result to appear (cell A3 in this case).
- Type "SUM(" and then select the range of cells that you want to sum (e.g., A1:A2). Close the parentheses by typing ")".
- Press Enter, and the result of the sum will be displayed in the selected cell (A3).

Note: You can also manually perform calculations by using operators such as addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication (*), and division (/). For example, you can enter "=A1+A2" in cell A3 to manually sum the values in A1 and A2.

Excel is a powerful tool with numerous functions and formulas to calculate and analyze data. You can explore the different functions and formulas available in Excel's formula library to meet your specific calculation requirements.
