ROUNDDOWN

Formulas / ROUNDDOWN
Round down to a specified number of digits.
=ROUNDDOWN(number,num_digits)
  • number - the number to truncate
  • num_digits - [REQUIRED] the place where to round number

Examples

  • =ROUNDDOWN(3.9,0) rounds 3.9 down to the nearest whole number, which is 3.

  • =ROUNDDOWN(A1,1) rounds down to the nearest decimal place. For example, if A1 is 3.75, the result would be 3.7.

  • =ROUNDDOWN(A1,2) rounds down to the nearest two decimal places. For example, if A1 is 3.753, the result would be 3.75.

  • =ROUNDDOWN(A1,0) rounds down to the nearest one. For example, if A1 is 3.4, the result would be 3.

  • =ROUNDDOWN(A1,-1) rounds down to the nearest ten. For example, if A1 is 23.4, the result would be 20.

Summary

The ROUNDDOWN function is a useful tool for rounding a number down to its nearest whole number, percentage, or other number. It takes one argument, the number to be rounded down.

  • The ROUNDDOWN function takes two arguments: number and num_digits. The number argument is the number to truncate and the num_digits argument is the place to round down to the nearest integer.
  • ROUNDDOWN rounds all numbers down to the nearest whole number.
