Which rule does Excel follow to evaluate the mathematical expression
Answers
The rule :
1) that every formula should start with and equal to sign(=).
2) The formula should be like this to add just an example - =SUM(B1:E1) where B1:E1 is the cell range of the values we want to take the sum of. For other expressions you have to use other formulas..

Rule for Excel follow to evaluate the mathematical expression
• Operators specify the type of calculation that you want to perform on the elements of a formula.
• Excel follows general mathematical rules for calculations, which is Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, and Addition and Subtraction, or the acronym PEMDAS (Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally).
• Using parentheses allows you to change that calculation order.
• Types of operators.
• There are four different types of calculation operators: arithmetic, comparison, text concatenation, and reference.
• Arithmetic operators
• To perform basic mathematical operations, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division; combine numbers; and produce numeric results, use the following arithmetic operators.
• Comparison operators
• You can compare two values with the following operators. When two values are compared by using these operators, the result is a logical value—either TRUE or FALSE.
• Text concatenation operator
• Use the ampersand (&) to concatenate (join) one or more text strings to produce a single piece of text.
Reference operators
• Reference operators
• Combine ranges of cells for calculations with the following operators.
