The formula to increase the value of cell Al by 20% could be:
=Al*1.2
This formula multiplies the value in cell Al by 1.2, which is the equivalent of increasing the value by 20%.
Another way to write the formula would be
=Al+Al*0.2
This formula is adding the value in cell Al to the result of Al multiplied by 0.2 which is also equivalent of increasing the value by 20%.
