Default Round down to nearest 5p

Hi,

I've searched the discussions for my answer but am now confused with several
slightly different ways...

I have a final selling price for a quote... then the quote to send out to
the customer has an extra £2 added on...
This quote figure needs to be rounded down to the nearest 5p... Whats the
easiset way???

Thanks, Mel :-)

If your number is in A1, try this:

=FLOOR(A1,0.05)

Hope this helps.

Isn't that down to the half-penny, not 5p?
