How to use the ROUNDUP and ROUNDDOWN functions in Google Sheets?

The ROUNDUP and ROUNDDOWN functions in Google Sheets are useful for rounding off decimal numbers to a specified number of decimal places. The ROUNDUP function rounds a number up to a specified number of decimal places, while the ROUNDDOWN function rounds a number down to a specified number of decimal places.

To use the ROUNDUP function, you need to specify the number you want to round up and the number of decimal places to which you want to round. For example, to round up the number 3.14159 to 2 decimal places, you would use the formula =ROUNDUP(3.14159,2), which would return the value 3.15.

To use the ROUNDDOWN function, you also need to specify the number you want to round down and the number of decimal places to which you want to round. For example, to round down the number 3.14159 to 2 decimal places, you would use the formula =ROUNDDOWN(3.14159,2), which would return the value 3.14.

The ROUNDUP and ROUNDDOWN functions in Google Sheets are used to round a number to a specified number of decimal places. The ROUNDUP function always rounds up, while the ROUNDDOWN function always rounds down.

The syntax for the ROUNDUP function is:

ROUNDUP(number, decimals)

The syntax for the ROUNDDOWN function is:

ROUNDDOWN(number, decimals)

• number is the number that you want to round.
• decimals is the number of decimal places to which you want to round the number.

For example, to round the number 123.456 to two decimal places, you would use the following formula:

=ROUNDUP(123.456, 2)

This would return the value 123.46.

To round the number 123.456 to one decimal place, you would use the following formula:

=ROUNDDOWN(123.456, 1)

This would return the value 123.5.

You can also use the ROUND function to round a number to a specified number of decimal places. The syntax for the ROUND function is:

ROUND(number, decimals)

The ROUND function rounds the number according to standard rounding rules. If the digit to the right of the decimal place is 5 or greater, the number is rounded up. If the digit to the right of the decimal place is less than 5, the number is rounded down.

For example, to round the number 123.456 to two decimal places, you would use the following formula:

=ROUND(123.456, 2)

This would return the value 123.46.

To round the number 123.456 to one decimal place, you would use the following formula:

=ROUND(123.456, 1)

This would return the value 123.5.

You can use the ROUNDUP, ROUNDDOWN, and ROUND functions to round numbers in Google Sheets. These functions are useful for formatting data and for making calculations.
