Hello, I checked most of the topics but couldnt find the exact formula.

AB
14 M 10 AD40
220 M 7 AD140

I would like to get B2 results just like that from A1 and A2 columns. Extract 4 and 10 from A1 and multiply them eachother in B1 (B1 is just an example) like I tried to describe above.
I found a vba code to extract 4 and 10 from that text cell into B1 like "410" but I couldnt find a way to multiply them as "=4*10" in B1 instead of putting them together like "410".

To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
That code does exactly what the formula in post#2 does. :confused:

But you said it works.
As long as you have something that works that's fine. (y)

I tried it, now I remembered I have already tried it sir, it only takes first number.

Are you trying that in 2021 or 2019?

In that case you will need to confirm the formula with Ctrl Shift Enter rather than just Enter.

I added sumproduct in beginning of your formula to make 2 cells that calculated by your formula sum in 1 cell. What is wrong with that line?
=SUMPRODUCT(PRODUCT(FILTERXML("<k><m>"&SUBSTITUTE(A2:A3," ","</m><m>")&"</m></k>","//m")))
