Default Trying to test for multiple of 5, or .5, .05, .005, .0005

hi, trying to test column of numbers for being a multiple of ~ 5
where this is used in a conditional format that tests a column of sequential
numbers.

cond. format works for the following formula's: (where):

$I$7: start level for sequential numbers; works for .20, cond. format
does not work for entry of 2.00 (1st 3 sequence of mult of 5 do work in the
cond. format: 2.00, 2.05, 2.10; but stops there,

PROBLEM: 2.15 does not hilite with cond. format formula below.

(KEY?): $I$8 will change, but is set to .01
$J$8: set to .05 (for .20 setting in $I$7 works; for 2.00 & .10 items
work, .05 does not for 2.15, 2.20, 2.25.. and after)

external formula that gets sequential numbers:
=IF(AND(H17="",OR(I16="",$I$7="",$I$8="")),"",IF(H 17="x",$I$7,I16+IF($I$8="",1,$I$8)))

Conditional Format formula:
=OR(AND(ROUND(MOD(I17,$J$8),4)=0,I17<""),H17="z")
