I don't understand what this is doing in a Spreadsheet I'm working in.
Can someone explain it to me?

=(Y24+Y26)/Y25*-1
the numbers in the cells represent the following.
=(6+(1))/6*-1

Thanks.
 
The formula adds Y24 and Y26 together, then divides by Y25, and finally
multiplies the result by -1.
 
It's doing elementary math, BUT ... it's changing the sign of the result!

Minus to Plus OR Plus to Minus.
