You need to remove the spaces from the texts and convert it into a number:

VALUE(SUBSTITUTE(N2;" ";""))

In the case . is not the decimal seperator on you system, take an extra step to replace that as well (either from , to . or vice versa):

VALUE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(N2,".",",")," ",""))

CodePudding user response:

Is the . the decimal separator on your system?

If not then you have to replace each one with the correct separator.

FIND/REPLACE will make this easy.

Note: Excel shows these are all recognized as text since they are to the left of the cell, numbers are automatically to the right. Unless you change the formatting.
