Excel provides three primary functions for rounding numbers to your desired precision:
| Round | Rounds a number to specified decimal points. |
| Round Up | Always rounds the last digit up to the next value. |
| Round Down | Always rounds the last digit downward. |
Here’s the syntax for these functions:
- Round(number,num_digits)
- RoundUp(number,num_digits)
- Rounddown(number,num_digits)
Here, the number argument refers to the value you wish to round, and num_digits specifies the number of decimal places to round to.
I will take Round function for example, you can apply the functions as followings steps:
1. Enter the formula below in a blank cell, such as C1. Press the Enter key.
=ROUND(A1, 2)
2. Select cell C1, then drag the fill handle across the range you need. This action rounds all numbers to two decimal points. See screenshot:
