Do NOT use spaces in the formula. Question Show Task List A Task: EX4107 Time Remaining: No Limit Attempts Remaining: 4 Exit 20 of 40

Explanation / Answer

this is a very simple operation in excel. All you need to do is to use PRODUCT function.
to multiply cell D2 and cell E2 the formula is :
=PRODUCT(D2,E2)

so, if you want to fill the GROSS column of the table by multiplying the respective hourly rate & no. of hours, you can apply the formula for each row in the GROSS column :
=PRODUCT(D2,E2)
=PRODUCT(D3,E3)
=PRODUCT(D4,E4)
=PRODUCT(D5,E5)
=PRODUCT(D6,E6)
=PRODUCT(D7,E7)

feel free if you have any doubt. :)
