I want to add cells a-d and then do something like add cell (e/22) but not return something greater than 1.0
Ideas?

For setting a min, wrap your formula with a MAX(original formula; min value) and to set a max limit do MIN(original formula; max value). In the example you gave it wil be MAX(your formula; 0) turning to MAX(-20; 0) which is 0.
To set both boundaries in same cell, do MAX(MIN(original formula; max value); min value).
This is not specific to spreadsheets, it is generic math.
