I'll give it a shot at explaining it.

if 1627 were to round up to 1630, it would have been easy, just

=CEILING(A1,5)

I used this as the basis of the solution, but then tested as to when the
result of that was exactly divisible by 10 (MOD(CEILING(A1,5),10)=0). Thus
any number thatn rounds up to a multiple of 10 passes this test, so by just
subtracting it -(MOD(CEILING(A1,5),10)=0), which takes one away. SO anything
that is a multiple of 10 when rounded up to the nearest 5 gets 1 taken
away,. I included the test for the number being divisible by 10 without
rounding up to the nearest 5 (MOD(A1,10)<0) so that numbers that started as
multiples of 10, 1630 etc., didn't get changed to 1629. So 1628 round to
1629, as does 1629, but 1630 stays at 1630, 1631 rounds to 1635. The AND is
just to combine both tests and return a single TRUE/FALSE result which the -
will negate (-1 or -0).

As for the second bit, I think you just need to change all instances of A10
in my formula to D8/0.67.

Bob,

I tried it and it worked, but to be honest with you I really don't
understand what or how it is working can you explain for me. This formula
is
a bit advanced for me and I would really like to understand it so I can
use
it on a large spreadsheet. Also is there anyway to combine the formula
you
gave me with the one simple one that I had initially "=D8/0.67". Bob
you
are great!!

Does anyone know how to use the Round Function or the Ceiling function
to
round up to a specific number? Example: I have the number 1288 in D8
and
I
have a formula in E8 which says "=D8/0.67", the result is 1922. But
I
would
like "1922" to round up to "1925". Had it been "1927", I would want
it to
round up to 1929. Can anyone tell me how to do this?
