5. Click on a cell next to your last button. Then click on the AutoSum button located on the toolbar. This symbol will automatically add your two numbers together that you have entered into your two cells

6. The AutoSum in my example has selected cells H3:I3. I will then need to change the last letter and number I and 3 by backspacing and adding the letter and number E and 3 Before backspacing I and 3, left click on your mouse to get rid of black highlighted section.

7. Once E and 3 have been typed into the AutoSum cell, press enter. The numbers have been automatically added up. This will be needed for your budget workings.
