How do I get an IF Statement to display the value if conditions are met?

=IF(E8-8<=0,"0") With this, I am able to get part of my desired result. If the value entered into cell E8 is 8 or less, it displays 0 in the cell. What I would like to have happen is when the value of E8-8 is greater than 0, I want it to display the difference.

E8=12-8 would leave a value of 4. This is what I want to display in the cell.

or E8=15-8 would leave a value of 7...

The value entered in E8 could be anything from 0 to 24.

Try:

=IF(E8-8<=0,0,E8-8)

or

=MAX(0,E8-8)

thank you, that did the trick!

There are various types of these statements you can use depending on the criteria for testing a condition, as well as when you want the test to be conducted. Here's a quick overview of some of them and their syntax:
=IF(A1="Yes", "Hello World","Hello Universe") - evaluates A1 for "yes" and displays "hello world" if it does so
=IF(A1="No", "<math>FINAL VALUE</math>","<math>SUPER DUP
