1.

Round to 2 decimal points

Example: 1.2649 to 1.26
=ROUND(A1,2)Rounds value in A1 by 2 decimal points

2. Round up to 2 decimal points

Example: 1.2649 to 1.27
=ROUNDUP(A1,2)Roundsup value in A1 by 2 decimal points (ie away from zero)

3. Round to nearest integer

Example: 1.2649 to 1
=ROUND(A1,0)By using 0, we can round the value to nearest integer

4. Round to nearest multiple of 10

Example: 544.234 to 540
=ROUND(A1,-1)By using negative numbers, we can round the value to nearest multiple of 10, 100

5. Round up to nearest multiple of 10

Example: 544.234 to 550

=ROUNDUP(A1,-1)

6. Round to nearest thousand

Example: 312789123 to 312789000

=ROUND(A1,-3)

7. Round to nearest million with one decimal point

Example: 312789123 to 312.8
=ROUND(A1/1000000,1)First we divide the number by million (1,000,000) and then round this to 1
decimal point.

8. Round to nearest multiple of 2

Example: 43 to 44
=MROUND(A1,2)Just like round formula, but for any multiple. So MROUND(A1,2) takes value in A1
and rounds it to nearest multiple of 2

9. Round to nearest multiple of 5

Example: 93 to 95

=MROUND(A1,5)

10. Round down to hundred

Example: 301 to 300
=FLOOR(A1,100)To round down, we can use FLOOR formula.

11. Get only the integer portion of a number

Example: -23.34 to -23
=TRUNC(A1,0)To extract only the integer portion of number, use TRUNC formula. Note: INT formula
gives same result for positive numbers.

12. Round a number to 2 decimals and convert to text

Example: 312789.26921 to 312,789.27
=FIXED(A1,2,FALSE)In one shot, round and convert the number to text. Useful when you want text
output.

13. Get next even number

Example: 42.1 to 44
=EVEN(A1)Gets you next EVEN number (away from zero)

14. Get next odd number

Example: 44.93 to 45

=ODD(A1)

15. Round to nearest quarter ($0.25)

Example: 19.14 to 19.25
=MROUND(A1,0.25)MROUND can be used with fractions too.

16. Round to next 9 (ie 19,29,39 etc.)

Example: 23 to 29

=ROUNDUP(A1,-1)-1To do this, we just roundup the number to next 10 and then subtract 1 from it.

17. Round up to next 1000

Example: 124567 to 125000
=CEILING(A1,1000)Just like FLOOR, but takes you to next value.

18. Get only decimal portion of a number

Example: 23.345 to 0.345
=A1-TRUNC(A1)To get only decimal portion, subtract TRUNC value from original

What about .2 tips?

Well, those are for you to fill down. Go ahead and write formulas for both these situations & you have
the .2 tips!

18.1 Waiter friendly pricing

Lets say you run a hotel where customers usually tip 15% of bill amount. Now, to make it easy, you
want to price your items such that when 15% is added, the total amount becomes a round number
like $1.00, $2.00 etc.
For example: If a dishs current price is $2.50, then 15% tip on it would be $0.37. This makes the
total $2.87.
If you modify the price to $2.60, with tip the total would be $3.00.
Assuming current price of a dish is in A1, what formula will give you new price?

18.2 Rounding to nearest Monday

Lets say you have some dates in a list and you want them to round to nearest Monday. Assuming
you have a date in A1, what formula gives nearest Monday?
