Precedents are the cells that a formula uses. Say you have the following formula in a cell:
=A2+C12-D10
Then the cells A2, C12 and D10 are the precedents of the formula. The formula is using values that are in them. You use Trace Precedents to find those cells and highlight them on the Spreadsheet. If you are having a problem with formulas you can highlight the cells to be able to see which ones are being used. One way of doing it is to select the cell and then press the CTRL key and also the [ key. You can also use the Auditing toolbar to do it.
