percentage
I am trying to get the correct amount by using the following formula:
=c3/d3 to get percentage amount c3 is 12.74 d3 is 19.81 my percentage in e3 equals 64% with no decimals I then take: e3*f3 to equal G3 e3 is 64% f3 is $21.39 G3 calculate is $13.76 It should be $13.69 I do not know what I am doing incorrectly. Thank you, |

try to round them explicitly:
=round(c3/d3) maybe excel displays 64, but in the end calculates with 64.31..... hth Carlo On Nov 5, 12:30 pm, formula101 wrote: I am trying to get the correct amount by using the following formula: =c3/d3 to get percentage amount c3 is 12.74 d3 is 19.81 my percentage in e3 equals 64% with no decimals I then take: e3*f3 to equal G3 e3 is 64% f3 is $21.39 G3 calculate is $13.76 It should be $13.69 I do not know what I am doing incorrectly.

percentage
Thank you! It worked. I have been working on this for the past two
hours...and could not find what I wanted to do. I thought that changing the decimal points would automatically round it. Thank you!
