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:
