    Don't understand why formula doesn't equal zero

    g7=1628.64, g13=1628.64, In another cell I have =g7-g13, the answer is -1.15961E-11. Why?

    Re: Don't understand why formula doesn't equal zero

    Your post did not comply with Rule 1 of our Forum RULES. Your post title should accurately and concisely describe your problem, not your anticipated solution.

    Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.


    I have made the correction in your post for you this time, as a courtesy. Please remember in your future posts. This has merely been a harmless warning to underline the importance that you read and follow the Forum Rules we are all expected to abide. Thank you for your understanding and compliance.
