Default Limited fraction cell format


yes that's true but I want it to be either 1/4, or 3/8, or 5/16, etc...
based on what the decimal is. This is for fabrication and I can't tell
the shop to make something that is 5.7659 inches. I would tell them 5
13/16" which in decimal form is 5.8125. See? The cell would need to
round up to the nearest 16th or 8th or 4th or 2nd. I don't know how to
custom format cells. But using hte formats given I would have to make
it either 16th or 8th etc but not all.
