Does anyone know how to use the Round Function or the Ceiling function to
round up to a specific number? Example: I have the number 1288 in D8 and I
have a formula in E8 which says €œ=D8/0.67€�, the result is 1922. But I would
like €œ1922€� to round up to €œ1925€�. Had it been €œ1927€�, I would want it to
round up to 1929. Can anyone tell me how to do this?

Bob,

I tried it and it worked, but to be honest with you I really don't
understand what or how it is working can you explain for me. This formula is
a bit advanced for me and I would really like to understand it so I can use
it on a large spreadsheet. Also is there anyway to combine the formula you
gave me with the one simple one that I had initially "=D8/0.67". Bob you
are great!!

Hi,

I am really looking for what Bob gave me. I need things to round up to
either a 5 or a 9. Thanks,

I'll give it a shot at explaining it.

if 1627 were to round up to 1630, it would have been easy, just

=CEILING(A1,5)

I used this as the basis of the solution, but then tested as to when the
result of that was exactly divisible by 10 (MOD(CEILING(A1,5),10)=0). Thus
any number thatn rounds up to a multiple of 10 passes this test, so by just
subtracting it -(MOD(CEILING(A1,5),10)=0), which takes one away. SO anything
that is a multiple of 10 when rounded up to the nearest 5 gets 1 taken
away,. I included the test for the number being divisible by 10 without
rounding up to the nearest 5 (MOD(A1,10)<0) so that numbers that started as
multiples of 10, 1630 etc., didn't get changed to 1629. So 1628 round to
1629, as does 1629, but 1630 stays at 1630, 1631 rounds to 1635. The AND is
just to combine both tests and return a single TRUE/FALSE result which the -
will negate (-1 or -0).

As for the second bit, I think you just need to change all instances of A10
in my formula to D8/0.67.

Bob,

I did as you suggested, changed the A10 to D8/0.67. It worked now I will
test it out on larger spread sheet. Thanks so much for your explanation. It
makes sense I just have to absorb it all. Thanks much.

Hi Bob,

Need your help one more time. I tried it out on a few numbers and it worked
but I need to tweek it. A number which ends with a "5" like "1555" rounds
up to 1559, I need it to stay the same, because I need numbers to end with 5
or 9, therefore no change would be required for 1555. Also, I noticed that
the numbers that ended with a "0" like "1630" actually rounded up to 1635.
How would I alter the formula so that anything ending with a "0" would round
down to "29" instead of up to "35"?

I don't get the same results as you are getting. 1625 is staying at 1625 and
1630 is staying at 1630, neither is rounding up.

I think it is the D8/0.67, I think that has a small increment in it which
makes a number that looks like 1625 actually be something like 16.000001 ort
so, which will go up.

Try this (getting ugly) version

=CEILING(ROUND(D8/0.67,0),5)-(MOD(CEILING(ROUND(D8/0.67,0),5),10)=0)

Bob, if you are out there I need your assistance once again. you created
this formula for me to have my numbers end in either a 5 or a 9 and it works
great, can this formula be altered to end in either 49 or 99, depending on
where the numbers fall. Example 419 rounded down to 399, 329 rounded down to
299, 339 rounded up to 349, 359 rounded down to 349 or 369 rounded up to 399.
Of couse the numbers will be larger. Any assistance I can get with this
would be great. Thank you.
