if there is only one occurance of the number
You can check by =countif(range,value)

you can get the row and column by
=sum(if(range=value,row(range),0))
entered as an array (control-shift-enter)
and
=sum(if(range=value,column(range),0))
also entered as an array


if there is more than one occurance, it gets more complicated
and depends on what you want to do with the information.

Here's one way assuming your lookup range is f9:f13 and you are looking up
the value 222. adjust the ROW() and COLUMN() as your range (f9:f13) changes
to other columns or start rows.

=ADDRESS(MATCH(222,F9:F13,0)+ROW(F9)-1,COLUMN(F9))
