Excel automatically rounds 4/110 to 2/55.

Waterfall charts in Excel?
Office 365 customers have access to Waterfall charts since late 2016. They were added to Excel 2019.
that's not rounding. It's called simplifying.

you might want to show it as text instead of a number.

It does not help
The cell is a calculation cell, where imputed come from many different sheets.

=('2'!J9+'3'!J9+'4'!J9+'Indtast her'!J9)/('2'!J10+'3'!J10+'4'!J10+'Indtast her'!J10)

=(0+1+2+2)/ (10+50+50+0). I can not format it to text

I must show the entire number 4/110, but but excel shortening fraction to 4/55

hope you can help
