Problem with SUMPRODUCT function

I have a problem with the SUMPRODUCT function
It is not working properly
I want to know why this error

Attached is a file explaining the problem

https://www.mediafire.com/file/d7ru8c1yjkuaapo/Book1.xlsx/file 

when use
=SUMPRODUCT([Unit Price (L.E)],[Original Quantity]*(1))
The result is given as correct

but when use
=SUMPRODUCT([Unit Price (L.E)],[Original Quantity])
The result is given as incorrect

 

  • Reason - Check D235, number stored a TEXT. Convert it into Number and you wont have the difference in results.

      Thank you
      In the big sheet
      It did not appear or attract attention
      On your advice
      Sheets are revised by incrementing decimal places
      What does not have decimal points is known to be text and not a number
