    Excel maintains 15 figures in its numbers, but they are not always accurate; mathematically, the bottom line should be the same as the top line, in 'fp-math' the step '1 + 1/9000' leads to a rounding up as the first bit of the 14 bit tail '10111000110010' of the mantissa falling off the table when adding 1 is a '1', this up-rounding is not undone when subtracting the 1 again, since there is no ...

    A column of two numbers, with the lower number in red, usually indicates that the lower number in the column is to be subtracted, with the difference written below, under a line. This is most common in accounting. Formally, the number being subtracted is known as the subtrahend, [4] [5] while the number it is subtracted from is the minuend.

    3 − 1 = 2, say "Two thousand". One is performing 3 - 1 rather than 4 - 1 because the column to the right is going to borrow from the thousands place. Hundreds: 0 − 8 = negative numbers not allowed here. One is going to increase this place by using the number one borrowed from the column to the left.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carry_(arithmetic)

    In elementary arithmetic, a carry is a digit that is transferred from one column of digits to another column of more significant digits. It is part of the standard algorithm to add numbers together by starting with the rightmost digits and working to the left. For example, when 6 and 7 are added to make 13, the "3" is written to the same column ...

    The predecessor of a natural number (excluding zero) is the previous natural number and is the result of subtracting one from that number. For example, the successor of zero is one, and the predecessor of eleven is ten (+ = and =). Every natural number has a successor, and every natural number except 0 has a predecessor.

  7. Order of operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

    In some applications and programming languages, notably Microsoft Excel, PlanMaker (and other spreadsheet applications) and the programming language bc, unary operations have a higher priority than binary operations, that is, the unary minus has higher precedence than exponentiation, so in those languages −3 2 will be interpreted as (−3) 2 ...
