Syntax and arguments

Formula syntax

FLOOR(number, significance)

Arguments

  • Number: Required, the number that used to round.
  • Significance: Required, the multiple to which used to round.

Return Value

The FLOOR function returns to a numeric value.

Errors

#VALUE! error value occurs when the anyone of arguments is not a numeric value.

#NUM! error value occurs:

  • In Excel 2010 or later, when the argument number is a positive value, but the argument significance is a negative value.
  • In Excel 2007 or earlier, when argument number and significance have different arithmetic signs. #DIV/0! Error value occurs when the argument significance is zero.

Remarks

If the argument number is negative, FLOOR function rounds down and goes away to zero, for example, FLOOR(-10,3)=-12.

If the argument number is an exact multiple of significance, FLOOR function returns to the number itself, for example, FLOOR(10,2)=10.

Based on the values in table C3:G4, which contains the numbers and the corresponding specified significance, please use FLOOR function to round down and get the nearest multiples as this:

=FLOOR(C3,C4) //or directly use a number in the formula =FLOOR(10,1)
