Change your formula to:

=ROUND(A1*0.245,2)

which will round to 2 decimal places (cents, or pence etc), or:

=ROUNDUP(A1*0.245,0) if you really want to round up to units (dollars,
pounds etc),

Your total will now reflect what is on screen.

Hope this helps.

my format is multiplying cell by 0.245 the system automatically rounds up to
the
nearest unit (because i am using currency)
When l total the whole column it adds by the original three digit and not
the rounded up figure. Which means by totals are incorrect
