Cell A1 = 24...as the result of another formula
Is there a way to prevent this and work with the whole number only?

You could use the ROUND function in the formula in cell A1:

=ROUND(your_formula,0)

Or, you could round down to the whole number in your current formula:

=ROUNDUP(INT(A1)/4,0)

In a prefilled form, the formula in cell B1 is: =roundup(A1/4,0)
Cell A1 = 24, so the answer should be 6.

My problem is that even tho the cell displays the number as 24, the actual
number takes it several places past the decimal, (24.0000000000002) as the
result of another formula, so the result in B1 is 7 instead of 6. Is
there a
way to prevent this and work with the whole number only? I hope I have
given
enough information, but if not I will be happy to provide more details as
needed. Thanks in advance for any help.
