Display contents of cell in another cell as part of text string?

[mschmidt]

How can I display the contents of a cell in another as part of a text
string.

Such as... "The answer is "B4""

where B4 is the contents of cell B4?

Thanks

Try this:

="The answer is "&B4

Note <space> after "is".

Try

="The answer is "&B4

or, if you want to format B4 in a specific way e.g. with 2 decimal
places something like

="The answer is "&TEXT(B4,"###.00")
