What is the main benefit of automatic calculation in a spreadsheet?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It reduces errors and saves time
When formulas are used, a spreadsheet recalculates results when the input values change. This avoids repeating manual arithmetic and helps reduce copying or addition mistakes, especially in marksheets, budgets, and tables. The user should still check formulas and data because automatic calculation cannot correct wrong inputs. It does not delete files, print pictures, or record sound by itself.
