How would you remove the data in a single cell without affecting the formatting when working with an Excel spreadsheet?

One of the mistakes many candidates make during an interview is expounding on a very simple answer and providing too much detail to the interviewer. This is often interpreted as you trying to cover up a lack of knowledge or experience with the topic you are discussing. When answering technical questions like this, keep your answer brief and to the point. The interviewer will always ask you a follow-up question if they need more information or want to explore the topic in more detail.
