Divide Column A by Column B multiply Column C

I do a routine spreadsheet for multiple accounts entering three basic
columns: Column A is entered with new figures daily, those figures are
divided by a percentage in Column B, which is then divided by a fraction
percentage in Column C. These figures change several times dailyin Column A,
columns B and C always remain constant, so the function needs to be attached
to the Column Alphas, not the numeric numbers since that ones changes. So I
just need the PRECISE function entries for:

Column A Column B Column C
(Any #) /65% x.07

EXAMPLE:
1,000 15.3846 $1.08

It's pretty simple, I'm not smart enough for the rhetorical reading required
for a physicist to figure it out. Just the function entry, please, and only
the function, please. Thanks so much.

> Column A Column B Column C
> (Any #) /65% x.07
> 1,000 15.3846 $1.08

Assume data in col A starts in A2 down,
and we have:

In B1: 65
In C1: 0.07

then we could put

in B2: =IF(A2="","",A2/B$1)
in C2: =IF(B2="","",B2*C$1)

Select B2:C2, copy down as far as required
Format col C as currency

don't know why you have "%" in "/65%"
the example would suggest that you want to divide by 65 and then multiply by
0.07

formula in column B would be =A1/65
formula in column C would be =b1*0.07
may need to format the C column to be a currency with two decimal places

The advantage of having the formulas in cols B and C point to "fixed" cells
(i.e. B1 and C1), instead of hardcoding the values: 65 and 0.07 directly
into the formulas, is that we don't have to amend all the formulas should
the values(constants) need to be changed in future. We'd just simply change
the values in B1 and C1.
