Perhaps "better"; but is it legal?

Setting the legal question aside, it appears that you want to round or
round down -- not clear which for lack of examples -- to the half-
day. What should 127 hours (15.875 days) become: 15.5 (round down),
or 16 (round)?

If A1 contains the number of hours (e.g. 125 or 127), then one of the
following computes the number of days:

=ROUND(A1/8*2,0)/2
=ROUNDDOWN(A1/8*2,0)/2

Note that I used "*2" for clarity. The formulas can be simplified
algebraically as follows:

=ROUND(A1/4,0)/2
=ROUNDDOWN(A1/4,0)/2
