MROUND

MROUND(number, multiple)

Returns the number rounded to a certain multiple.

numberThe number you want to round.
multipleThe multiple you want the number rounded to:
Integer multiples - use a consistent formula
Decimal multiples - give random results

REMARKS
* This function is only available for backwards compatibility and should not be used.
* You should use the ROUND function instead with the formula =ROUND(number/multiple, 0) * multiple
* For an illustrated example refer to the page under Advanced Functions
* If "number" is an exact multiple of "multiple", there is no rounding.
* If "number" or "multiple" are zero, then 0 is returned.
* If "multiple" is an integer, numbers are rounded up when remainder of number/multiple >= multiple/2
* If "multiple" is an integer, numbers are rounded down when remainder of number/multiple < multiple/2.
* If "multiple" is not an integer, then you will get random results.
* If "number" and "multiple" have different signs, then #NUM! is returned.
* You can use the ROUNDDOWN function to round towards zero to a certain number of decimal places or digits.
* You can use the ROUNDUP function to round away from zero to a certain number of decimal places or digits.
* You can use the CEILING.MATH function to return the number rounded up by default to a certain multiple.
* You can use the FLOOR.MATH function to return the number rounded down by default to a certain multiple.
* For the Microsoft documentation refer to support.microsoft.com
