I have a column in a spreadsheet that contains a formula:
=1-(L851/K851) Using this formula, I calculate the percentage discount that a customer gets off a particular item. I formatted the column as a percentage with one decimal. The result shows a number with one decimal that is correct. However, when I move that into a pivot table, I get the multiple decimals (up to 15 digits). So I can't group calculate everything that is say 47.5% discount. I have multiple 15 digit numbers all listed separately that would round to 47.5%. My pivot table field is also formatted to a single digit. So I think that maybe I need to round the results in the original data. Which brings me to my very basic question. How do I do that? I found the section on worksheet functions, but I don't know how to put that into each cell with the formula. What is my formula if I want to round this to a single decimal result? Again, my current formula is: =1-(L851/K851) Thanks. Kathy |
