How to round percentage values to two decimal places in Excel?

Normally we can adjust a percentage value’s decimal places with the Increate Decimal feature or Decrease Decimal feature in Excel. However, after adjusting, the actual value showing in the formula bar doesn’t change at all (See below screenshot). So how to round percentage values and let both actual value and displaying value with two decimal places? This article will introduce you some solutions.


Round up/down percentage values to two decimal places with formulas

We can apply ROUND function, ROUNDUP function, or ROUNDDOWN function to quickly round up/down percentage values to specified decimal places in Excel. Please do as follows:

Select a blank cell beside the percentage values, says Cell D2, type the formula =ROUND(C2,4) (C2 is the percentage value whose decimal places you will change) into it, and then drag this cell’s AutoFill Handle to the range as you need. See screenshot:

Notes:
(1) For rounding up percentage values to two decimal places, please apply this formula =ROUNDUP(C2,4);
(2) For rounding down percentage values to two decimal places, please apply this formula =ROUNDDOWN(C2,4);
(3) For rounding percentage values to N decimal places, please apply this formula =ROUND(C2, N+2). For example, you need to round to 1 decimal place, please change the formula to =ROUND(C2, 3).
(4) If rounding results are not in percentage format, please select the rounding results and click the Percentage button; if rounding results are not with specific decimal place, please select the rounding results, and click the  Increase Decimal button or  Decrease Decimal button. See screenshot:
