Default Formula help - rounding up and round down?

Can anyone help me with working out a formula which automatically rounds data
up or down?

I am developing an assessment data base for my school and need average
scroes rounding up/down to the nearest .0, .3 or .7

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Default Formula help - rounding up and round down?

Hi,

Please show us some examples. Do you want to round up or down? Do you want
to round to the nearest 0, .3 or .7? Are these separate conditions, or are
they all to be applied at the same time? Notice that rounding up is not the
same as rounding to the nearest.

Here are some of the functions that can be used to round in Excel
MROUND
ROUNDUP
ROUNDDOWN
ROUND
FLOOR
CEILING

a few examples would clarify things.

They would be applied at the same time. I would have a group of figures, e.g.
4.7, 3.7, 5.3, 6.0, which are then averaged. Some of the averages are not .0,
..3 or .7 and i need to round the figure to the closet one.

Currently i am working through them manually changing them.
