Numbers are automatically divided by 100 and I can't turn it off

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Processor: Intel Hi there
I really need help. I spent hours trying to stop excel to divide all numbers I enter anywhere in the sheet by 100. It doesn't matter if it is a new sheet I just opened or an old one. And I tried to format the cells differently, but nothing worked.
Can anybody help?
Thanks a lot

No, 3400 would appear as 34.
