=Round(A2:E2,0)
i can get the required result in three steps
1.=Sum(A2:E2,0) gives me the result with one decimal
2.select cell at the top and click on the ribbon to reduce the decimal to nil.
3. use the fill handle
is it possible to accomplish the task with one formula? thanks

Use round on single cells rather that the range.
So, =ROUND(A2,0) and drag/copy across.
If these cells show as having a decimal place but all of those are zero, then it's formatting rather than the formula not working.
Also worth considering ROUNDDOWN / ROUNDUP depending on how ou need the results. 17.9 for example wold become 18 with ROUND or ROUNDUP, but 17 with ROUNDDOWN.
