Introduction to Excel

when you have taken out the decimal point does the figure round up and round down

RE: Introduction to Excel

Hi Ann,

Thank you for your question.

When you decrease the number of decimal places to zero, if the answer was 0.654, then Excel would round the figure up to 1 as the number after the decimal is 5 or above.

However if the answer was 0.45 then Excel would round that down to 0.

So even though 0 is displayed that actual answer is 0.4.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon

Excel tip:

Screen Splitters in Excel

Screen splitter icons can be set from the ribbon bar, or dragged from the scroll bars. The icon just above the up arrow on the right scroll bar controls the horizontal splitter; the icon to the right of the right arrow on the bottom scroll bar controls the vertical splitter.

These icons can be double-clicked to split the screen at the top left of the cell currently in use.
