Excel DOLLARFR function

Contrary to the DOLLARDE function, the DOLLARFR function converts a dollar value expressed in decimal notation to a dollar value expressed in fractional notation (including the integer part and a fraction part) based on given fraction, which helps in securities prices.

Syntax

DOLLARDE(decimal_dollar, fraction)

Arguments

Decimal_dollar (Required): It is the decimal number needs to be converted;
Fraction (Required): The integer used in the denominator of the fraction.

Remarks

1. If the fraction is a decimal, it will be truncated to integer;
2. The #NUM! error occurs when the fraction is less than 0;
3. The #DIV/0! error occurs when the fraction is equal to or greater than 0 and less than 1;
4. The #VALUE! error occurs when either of the arguments is non-numeric;

Return Value

It returns a decimal number.

Example

As shown in the screenshot below, to convert each dollar value expressed in decimal notation in B6:B13 into a dollar value expressed in fractional notation based on the corresponding fraction in C6:C13, you can do as follows.

1. Select a blank cell (here I select a cell D6 next to the first fraction), copy or enter the formula below and press the Enter key to get the result. Select this result cell and then drag its AutoFill Handle down to get other results.

=DOLLARFR(B6,C6)

Notes:In the formula, in addition to using references to cells, you can directly type in the dollar price and the fraction such as: =DOLLARDE(1.125,8).
