if / then function

Copper Contributor

Hello,

 

I am only an occasional Excel user, not an expert.  I would like to know how to construct a formula / if-then function.

 

This is what I would like to do: link percentages to numbers.

 

For instance / example:

 

 

 

100000 is 100 %

 

In cell B2  I have the value 58 that corresponds with 58000

In cell B4 I have the value 42 that corresponds with 42000

 

B2 + B4 = 100 

 

How do I write a formula in which :  IF  42 + 1, THEN 85 -1

or

IF 85 + 1, THEN 42 + 1

 

In suck a manner that the  numbest change automatically by adding or subtracting a value from the cells B2 and / or B4.

 

Thank you for your help.

 

Rudolf.
