So what do you want to have displayed in that cell? Any formula defines what is displayed. What would be the function of the additional text?

How can this be done?

If you need a function reference, as here, but want the displayed result to contain additional material, you need to include that material inside the formula containing the function. You can concatenate text with a function result using the CONCATENATE() function, or more simply using the "&" operator. Any non-text value, such as a number, is implicitly converted to text to enable this. For example,
=SQRT(3+1)
displays
2
whereas
="The square root of 3+1 is "&SQRT(3+1)&"."
displays
The square root of 3+1 is 2.

I trust this helps.
