Default i can't get this formula to work

i'm trying to write a formula where if the cell below it minus the active
cell is -21 x -23 then write one, else leave it blank.

so here's what i got so far, i think i'm just getting the parentheses wrong

=if((AND((c2-c1)*24)-21,((c2-c1)*24)-23),1,"")

i tried writing a simpler formula along the same lines and this one works

=if((AND(j3-21,j3-23)),1,"")

Hi Kyle

Try
=IF(AND((C2-C1)*24-21,(C2-C1)*24-23),1,"")

Kyle,

Try this

=IF(AND((C2-C1)*24-21,(C2-C1)*24-23),1,"")

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.
