Round Up The Sum Of A Column Figures To The Next Nearest Quarter
Apr 2, 2009
I need to round up the sum of a column figures to the next nearest quarter. For example: $1.11 would be rounded to $1.25, or say $1.83 would be rounded to $2.00. What formula would I need to do this? I'm using Excel 2000
I need to round a time to the nearest quarter hour and have it show in quarters. My formula figures out the hours worked. If the total is 8.36, then it needs to show 8.75. It needs to round up or down to nearest quater hour.
I work at a facility where we care for adults with disabilities and we need to record times that clients arrive and leave. I created an attendance check-in sheet that needs the current time entered quickly. Is there code that will allow staff to double click on a cell and have the current time entered and rounded to the nearest quarter hour?
Below is my current formula. Right now I have it rounding the results to the nearest .09. I would also like to have it round to the nearest .05 as well.
In other words, to be more exact: I need all numbers that end in 0 or 1 to be rounded down to 9; any numbers that end in 7 or 8 to be rounded up to 9; any numbers that end in 2, 3, or 4 to be rounded up to 5; and 6 to be rounded down to 5. And, of course any numbers ending in 5 or 9 shouldn't change.
I'm trying to find a way of displaying results from a worksheet which can range from a few thousand to several million. However I only want to report to a set number of significant figures(5), i.e. if the result is say £25,256,128 I would like to show the resuilt to the first 5 significant figures i.e. £25,256,000, and say £3,508,569 as £3,508,600.
I have been trying to find a way to take the result of a formula, calculate how many decimal places based on significant figures, then rewrite the formula with the Round function.
=(5-2)/2
result is 1.5 taken to 3 significant figures is 1.50
=Round((5-2)/2),2)
I need to keep the formula in the cell for validation purposes and I need the result truncated to significant figures for accuracy. I am currently using the significant figure formula found on the forum for my data with numbers.
I am looking for a formula which will allow a value to round up or down to the nearest x.99 if the value is greater than x.95 or less x.05 otherwise remain the same. i.e if the value is 0.96 it should read 0.99 and if the value is 1.04 it should read 0.99. however if the value 1.05 it should read 1.05.
I'm trying to round some figures UP to the nearest .5, However i only know this formula: =MROUND(P2,0.5) and that rounds to the nearest .5? Is there anything i can use instead to make sure it is always up not down. so 6.13 becomes 6.50 or 7.53 become 8.00? etc.
Is it possible to specify a number of significant figures (e.g., 3), so that Excel displays only 3 significant figures but RETAINS the full number? For example, take the number 16355.876: is it possible to have Excel display the number as 16400, yet retain the original number 16355.876? I know this is possible when the numbers are less than 1, but I can't seem to figure out how to do it with big numbers.
I am trying to figure out a formula that will provide the following results for time worked. (This is contract work that is billed in 1/10 hr increments.)
1 min - 5 min = no charge (rounddown to 0 min) 6 min - 11 min - rounddown to 6 min 12 min - 17 min - rounddown to 12 min.
or
1 - 5 min are billed at 0 hours 6 - 11 min are billed at .1 hour 12 - 17 min are billed at .2 hours
B15 = start time, C15 = end time, G15 = billable time in 1/10 hrs
I'm using Excel2010. I have a spreadsheet of loan information contained in rows. One of the columns lists the loan rate as a number (not a percent - so 5.25% is listed as 5.25, not 0.0525 and formated as percent). I need to pivot-table using the rate, rounded up to the nearest quarter of a percent (so 5.3875 rounds up to 5.50). Is there a formula to do this, or is it better to use a lookup table?
I guess I have an odd rounding up query. I want to know if its possible to make excel round up a number to the nearest number from within a list of numbers.
For instance my list could be
10 12 15 17 19 22 25 30 35 42
The numbers arent odds or evens or multiples of anything so I'm guessing there won't be an inbuilt function to do this but is there anyway I could get to the answer in a more round about way with helper calculations??
This issue is due to the limitations of the nested if formula. I have range of cells that contains percentile rankings 1-100. I am trying to figure out how to convert the cells that contain values 1-10 to a 1, cell values 11-20 to a 2 and so on.
I have a cell that is going to be used for the quantity of a certain item. I would like to dummy proof this sheet as much as possible so that if someone puts in 21.5, that it will do something like change the value to either 21 or 22, since there can't really be a .5 of this item.
Is it possible to 'round' a time to the next nearest 15min interval?
As an example in cell A1 I have a value that returns 2:07 PM (its formated as h:mm AM/PM), but in B1 I wish to translate this to the nearest 15min interval in an hour which is 2:15 PM, if the value in A1 was 5:39 PM I would want to show 5:45 PM in B1 etc etc
