RIGHT will always return text regardless of the cell value, but ISNUMBER will try to convert that to a number, so in this case you do not need the *1

How comes when i remove it from the equation, it will return False because i did try this as well?

You're quite right ISNUMBER does not convert a string to a number, I was getting confused with ISNUMERIC in VBA

RIGHT(C1,1)

and

RIGH(C1)

are qequivalent.

ISNUMBER(RIGHT(C1,1)*1)

iSNUMBER(RIGHT(C1)*1)

iSNUMBER(RIGHT(C1)+0)

are all equivalent where *1 or +0 are necessary.
