Hi Justina
I have been caught out before, with exactly what you describe. That's
why I said to check Tools>Options>Calculation and ensure it is set to
Automatic.

Perhaps try set it up again in a brand new sheet.
Click Insert > Worksheet to insert a new sheet
Then click Tools > Options > Calculation tab
and ensure that Automatic is checked > OK
(as Roger mentioned)
Ensure you have these 2 formulas
In C1: =A1*B1
In B3: =C1
The cell comments I placed for C1 & B3 in the sample was just for clarity.

Just enter the formula into B3.
Click on cell B3, type: =C1, press ENTER.
