are they in a table? If so, you can enter formulas into the table as
though you are in calc, and they will be processed. just go to an empty
cell, hit "=", then start typing a formula. you can even click/drag to
select table regions.

If they're not in a table for whatever reason, you can put them in a
table by highlighting them, and hitting ctrl+F12, or going to "Insert >
Table". 

I don't know how else you could do this... I tried inserting a formula
with "Insert > Fields > Other" and going to formula, but I couldn't
reference any numbers that way.

Hope that helps!
