Default Round down numbers

I am trying to round down a number to the next whole number. Example 9.2
would round down to 9, 6.0 would round down to 5.0

Hi,

You can use =ROUND(A1,0) to round off to the whole number. But then even
that wont round off 6.0 to 5.0. Is that what you really want?

Are you looking at only positive numbers?

You could use

=INT(A1)

but this would make 6 remain 6, if you really want to do what you say
then

=CEILING(A1-1,1)

How about this:

=ROUNDDOWN(A1-.001,0)
