a function on decimals

[Guest]

Hello,

would someone be able to help me build a function that would take the last
two digits in a value compare it then return a '0' or '5'. For example,

Column A
1.53138 (this value is the result of a formula =sum(c6/5873.05-c3) --> take
last two digits '38' compared to .00025. If it's less than .00025 then those
two last digits should become a 0 if greater than .00025 then it should be
'5'.
RESULT
1.5315
---------
1.53047 --> 1.5305
1.53002 --> 1.5300
1.52957 --> 1.5295

Thank you!

Try

=ROUND((A1*100000)/25,0)*25/100000

For a value in cell A1:

=IF(A1*1000-INT(A1*1000)>=0.25,INT(A1*1000)/1000+0.0005,INT(A1*1000)/1000)

You didn't say what to do it it were equal to 25, so I chose >=, but you can change that.

One more alternative

=TRUNC(A1,3)+0.0005*(MID(A1,SEARCH(".",A1)+4,2)>25)

 

[Guest]

Oops - make that

=TRUNC(A1,3)+0.0005*(VALUE(MID(A1,SEARCH(".",A1)+4,2))>25)

Barb,

It works great however, when i used the function below for values such as
1.52866, 1.52821, 1.52775, 1.52730 etc. the result is not correct. Any idea
why it won't work on these?

Thank you Bernie...i tried this formula and it works wonderfully. Thank you
for your time.

Thank you Duke...this is definitely another way i can go.

Because it is rounding to the nearest .00025, not as per your actual criteria.
