Re: rounding down a number

Subtract .1 from the number before rounding it when you want it to round that way...

100.5 will become 100.4 and round down.
100.6 will become 100.5 and round up.
Everything else will round as 'normal'.

Hi,

I’m trying to round down any number with a half, but keep the round function for all other fractions.

For example

 

 

100.1 becomes 100

100.4 becomes 100

100.5 becomes 100 (this one would ordinarily round to 101)

100.6 becomes 101

100.9 becomes 101

 

Thanks, Mick
