I want to be able to subtract a value of a total using checkboxes. Let's say I have values in Column A (10,20,56) and A4 is the total, on column B I have checkboxes for each row. Now, when I click on the checkbox next to the value 10, I will like to subtract that value from the total on A4(86), so the result will get 76. Subsequently, if I click on the checkbox next to 20, then the value of the total (A4) will change to 56.

Use filter() to get the rows where the checkbox is not ticked, and sum those rows, like this:

=sum(filter(A1:A4, not(B1:B4)))

See filter().
