    subtract from a specific amount but keep total in same cell?

    I am trying to set up a formula to subtract from 2 different lines say column B and C have data in them
    I want them to subtract from 90k

    So 90k would be the starting number
    B1 has 450 and C1 has 350

    now my total has 89,200 but where i put my TOTAL at i want it to stay there not move from the cell.

    Re: subtract from a specific amount but keep total in same cell?

    What cell has the starting number?
    If it's A1, would this formula suffice?

    =90000 - B1 - C1
