For Example, to subtract 10 from 8 can be found by using the following formula in Excel. We need to put the minuend as the one parameter and -Percentageminuend as the second parameter.

The numbers in A, B,C, D are reference numbers, they should not be part of the calculation. We can also make use of SUM FUNCTION to subtract the percentage. What is the most efficient way to do this? A1(1+0.1) Formula to Subtract or Decrease a Value by a Percentage You can use the below steps to write this formula: First, enter in a cell and refer to the cell with the original value. The point is to create an overview of how many hours employees (1,2,3) have to spend spend on project B2:B6 for each week (E,F,G), and what happens if other employees take a certain percentage of the workload (C,D). So for example in G7 the result for "1" should be 50% of 10 + 75% of 5, because "2" takes 50% of 10(G2) and "3" takes 25% of 5(G5). Now however I would like to subtract to that result the percentage in C1 and/or D1, and "give it" to one of the other blue numbers, again with the condition that there is a match between C2:C6 or D2:D6 and A7:A9. I use the following formula to calculate the SUMPRODUCT of the values in a column with the condition that there is a match between B2:B6 and A1:A3 (shoutout to user:8162520). Subtract two or more numbers in a cell Click any blank cell, and then type an equal sign ( ) to start a formula.
