To allow Excel to distinguish formulas from data, all formulas begin with an equal sign (=).
A
TRUE
B
FALSE
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -To allow Excel to distinguish formulas from data, all formulas begin with an equal sign (=). Regarding a named range, the scope of a name is the location within which Excel recognizes the name without qualification. Excel recognizes a construct like 3+4= as a legitimate formula.

Detailed explanation-2: -All formulas in spreadsheet programs, like Microsoft Excel, OpenOffice Calc, and Google Sheets start with an equal sign (=). To display an equal sign, but not have it start a formula, you must “escape” the cell by entering a single quote (’) at the beginning.

Detailed explanation-3: -The dollar sign in an Excel cell reference affects just one thing-it instructs Excel how to treat the reference when the formula is moved or copied to other cells. In a nutshell, using the $ sign before the row and column coordinates makes an absolute cell reference that won’t change.

Detailed explanation-4: -We can use the “Not equal to” comparison operator in Excel to check if two values are not equal to each other. In Excel, the symbol for not equal to is <>.

Detailed explanation-5: -If you type in the formula, you must start with an equal sign, so Excel knows that the data in the cell is a formula.
