How do I write a formula in excel where 1 = .05 and 2 = .75 etc.

How do I write a formula in excel where 1 = .05 and 2 = .75 and 3 = 1.23?
So, if the number entered in the cell is 1 then .05 is muliplied by another
cell.

Hi,
let's assume you enter 1 in A2, and in B2 you want 0.5 multiplied by cell
A12, so in B2 enter

=if(A2=1,A12*0.05)

to complete your example , if none of the 3 numbers are entered I assume you
want blank

=if(A2=1,A12*0.05,if(A2=2,your cell*0.75,if(A2=3,your cell*1.23,"")))

hi,

Maybe this

=CHOOSE(A1,0.5,0.75,1.23)

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.
