For the basic operations, you use the following symbols: + for addition - for subtraction * for multiplication / for division
operators (although, there is no specific percentage operation, only the percent symbol to show the number is a percent) Addition (+) Subtraction (-) Multiplication (*) Division (/) Exponent (^) operators Arithmetic operators are the symbols used in formulas to calculate values, such as addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication (*), division (/), and exponentiation (^).
Excel can do any kind of mathematical operation, so that includes addition and subtraction.
There is no specific function in Excel for subtraction, like SUM for addition. We use the minus sign instead.
Excel does not use format symbols. If this question is asking about arithmetic operators, the symbols are:Addition (+)Subtraction (-)Multiplication (*)Division (/)Exponent (^)
There can be different categories of symbols used, but the ones you are referring to would be operators, such as the signs for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Other symbols used include brackets and symbols to aid formatting like currency symbols, decimal points and percentage signs.
The four main mathematical operators in Excel are Addition (+), Multiplication (*), Subtraction (-), and Division (/).EXAMPLES:A1+A2 (Addition)A1 * A2 (Multiplication)A1 - A2 (Subtraction)A1 / A2 (Division)
They are on the same level as each other. Mathematically, addition and subtraction have equal precedence and are done in a left to right order. Microsoft Excel is designed to follow the rules of mathematics, so they have equal precedence.
An operator refers to the symbols used in mathematical operations. The main mathematical operations are addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and to the power of, like 10 to the power of two or 10². So the operators for those are + - * / and ^.

We use symbols in excel when we need to add a symbol of copyright, trademark symbols, and Unicode symbols etc.
