Rounding
Im trying to round a number to the nearest 0.5 either up or down. Example:
3.2 becomes 3.0 or 3.4 becomes 3.5. Please help. I'm getting so frustrated with something that should be simple. Thanks |

Alternatively, either of the following: =round(A1/0.5,0)*0.5 =round(A1*2,0)/2 ----- original message ----- "Arceedee" wrote in message ...

Rounding
=MROUND(A1,0.5)
In case of problems, read Excel help for the MROUND function. Alternatively =ROUND(2*A1,0)/2 -- David Biddulph "Arceedee" wrote in message ...

Rounding
Won't that always round UP, rather than to the nearest, Jacob?
3.2 goes to 3.5, not 3.0 as requested. -- David Biddulph Jacob Skaria wrote: =CEILING(A1,0.5) Im trying to round a number to the nearest 0.5 either up or down. Example: 3.2 becomes 3.0 or 3.4 becomes 3.5. Please help. I'm getting so frustrated with something that should be simple. Thanks |
