You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Enter the three values into the first row of the spreadsheet.
Those would be cells A1,B1, and C1.
Make sure C1 is the right hand side of the equation (560 in your example).
In an empty cell, type "=C1-A1-B1"
It this cell it will calculate 560-180-325=55 from your example.
