Remove parentheses in Excel in a column

Hello everyone

In one Excel column, I have numbers with some of them in parentheses.

How can I remove them?

Indeed, if I go to "find/replace", it will also remove parentheses from my formulas in other columns.

How can I only remove the numbers in parentheses from a single column?

I am using a simplified version of Excel for iPad. Perhaps this explains it.

Maybe there would be a formula to do this?

Note: I just realized that the cells in this column contain formulas; perhaps this explains it?

Is there a solution?

Thank you

Hello.

"I have numbers, some of which are in parentheses. How can I remove them?"
Remove the numbers or the parentheses?

"How can I remove only the numbers in parentheses from a single column?"
Simply select the relevant column, and only that one ...
