rounding question
I am currently on office 2003, but we are upgrading to 2007 in a few weeks.
Question: I need to take a number, multiply by 1.07 (107%), then take the result and round up to the nearest 5 or 0. For example, if I had (.49*1.07) = .5243---I would need the formula to return .55. Conversely, I would need (.55*1.07) = .5885 --- I would need the formula to return .60. Thank you. |
