IF Statement Check box, not returning check

Hello, 

I have a sheet that I am saying if a score is over 80 to check the box. The formula itself seems to be working as it is returning the 1 however I want it to check the box not show me the value. 

 

Any ideas what I'm missing here?

    usually you should post the formula you are testing so we know what you did and don't have to guess.

     

    =if([column2]@row > 80,1,0)

    also

    =if([column2]@row > 80, true,false)

    should work.

    If it is showing a value my guess is you used the first formula I posted but put the 1 in parenthesis as seen below

    =if([column2]@row > 80, "1","0")

    which will post the 1 as a text value instead of a numeric value and post the text instead of checking the box.
