Default [OT] Excel help

As you seem to be in the 'know' on Excel issues, I would like to get Excel
to calculate how much a given reading is below or above the long-term
average. Like this example:

Mean Min LTA
7.0 6.5 +0.5
5.0 6.5 -1.5

If you get my drift....cheers.

Easy !
Let A1 = 7.0
Let B1 = 6.5
In cell C1 the formula would be =A1-B1
