You can see the value in D1 has the two words combined nicely. |\n\nOperator Precedence  \nIf you combine several operators in a single formula, Excel performs the operations in a specific order, described below. If operators within the same formula share the same precedence Excel then defaults  \nfrom left to right. The user may change the order by which calculations are performed by using parentheses.  \nThe following is an example of why the precedence needs to be understood and why it is important:  \n\n| Formula | Result | Calculation |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| =5+2*3 | 11 | (2 times 3) plus 5 |\n| =(5+2)*3 | 21 | (5 plus 2) times 3 |\n\n\n| Operator Precedence |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| Operator | Meaning |\n| * and / | Multiplication and Division |\n| + and ‐ | Addition and Subtraction |\n| & | Text Concatenation |\n| = | Equal to |\n| \u003C> | Not equal to |\n| \u003C= | Less than or equal to |\n| >= | Greater than or equal to |\n\nUPPER, LOWER, PROPER, and TRIM  \nThese formulas all work with text.
