In Excel, cell content refers to the actual data entered into a cell, such as numbers, text, or formulas, while cell format determines how that content is displayed, including options like font style, color, number formatting, and alignment. The format can enhance the readability of the content, making it easier for users to interpret the data. Although the underlying content remains unchanged, applying different formats can significantly affect how the information is perceived and understood in a spreadsheet.
