Default Rounding

I am trying to round into the millions. For example, I want to format
5,450,000 to 5.5
Everything I have tried so far is to the thousandth which gave me 5,450.

Default Rounding

try
=roundup(5450000,-5)/1000000)

that should do the trick

If you just want to do this via cell formatting, without changing the
underlying value, try this custom format

0.0,,
