As you all know workbook is a file consisting of spreadsheets to work and to capture and manage the data into it. By default, you will find three spreadsheets in the older Excel versions of 2013 and 2016 and only one sheet in Excel 2019 and other latest versions.
But users can create multiple spreadsheets within a single workbook and can also delete them whenever required. So, when users feel no need for some of the existing spreadsheets in the workbook, they can delete them to make the workbook clean.
