The offset may already be automatically programed into the radio.
On 2 meters it is 600 khz it can go plus or minus.
On 440 or 70 CM it is 5 mhz and usually only plus or up frequecy.
You probably have a radio where the offset is already pre-programed. If not most radios will show a + or a -.

Actually, I believe the earlier posting contained all the needed information straight from the ARRL Repeater Directory. However, the cryptic codes were not explained in plain English. The posting listed the following information:
146.685 - / KF4NTQ / oae 107.2
The repeater output frequency is listed as 146.685 MHz.
The offset for the transmit frequency should be -600 kHz as indicated by the minus "-" sign. On the 2-meter band the transmit offset is usually either +600 kHz or -600 kHz from the receive frequency. In this case, when you transmit the radio display should indicate 146.085 MHz until you unkey, at which point it will switch back to 146.685 MHz. If you are ever uncertain of the correct offset, the tip offered by AF579 is correct: 146.XXX MHz uses -600 kHz, 147.XXX MHz uses +600 kHz. There are exceptions to this rule, and even non-standard offsets, but this tip will work in 95% of the situations.
The callsign on the repeater station is KF4NTQ. This individual is the one responsible for correct operation of the repeater and must answer to the FCC for any violations. Sometimes it is a club callsign that is listed. The FCC database will list who are the custodians for that particular club callsign.
The "o" indicates an "open" repeater available to anyone who wishes to use it. You do not have to be a club member of the organization sponsoring the repeater or any other restriction.
The "a" indicates the repeater has an autopatch telephone interconnect feature.
The "e" indicates the repeater has a backup emergency power source. This is usually a generator, but can even be a battery bank charged by solar panels in the case of remote repeater locations.
This particular repeater requires a sub-audible tone frequency of 107.2 Hz on the transmit signal from your radio. If you do not have the correct tone frequency selected, or do not have the tone feature activated, the repeater will ignore your input signal.
Setting up the tone function on most ham radios is a two step process. You must first use the instruction manual to find out how to select the correct tone frequency from the 32 different ones usually available in the radio. The second step is to then ensure that you have the tone function turned on once you have programmed the desired tone frequency. Most radios display a "T" or the word "Tone" to indicate the sub-audible tone function is turned on. At that point the radio will automatically transmit whatever sub-audible tone you selected previously during the first step.
Sound simple enough?
