Mastering the art of rounding numbers to the nearest 5 in Excel can streamline data analysis and presentation. This guide provides clear steps for manipulating numerical data within Excel's versatile framework.
While Excel offers various rounding functions, we will also explore how Sourcetable presents a more intuitive alternative for this common task.
Use the MROUND function to round a number to the nearest multiple of 5. Syntax: =MROUND(cell, 5).
To round up to the nearest multiple of 5, apply the CEILING function. Syntax: =CEILING(cell, 5).
For rounding down, use the FLOOR function. Syntax: =FLOOR(cell, 5).
CEILING.MATH and FLOOR.MATH offer additional control for negative numbers. Use a mode argument for rounding direction. Syntax for rounding up: =CEILING.MATH(cell, 5); for rounding down: =FLOOR.MATH(cell, 5).
