Can anyone help

What formula will add a percentage to a value so i can get a gross value from nett
 
Hi Tina!

To add a percentage to a figure use:
=A1*(1+B1)
where B1 is a percentage.

But if you have the net value which is obtained by deducting a
percentage from the gross use:
=A1/(1-B1)
Derives the gross from which the percentage in B1 was deducted
