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

Importing Numbers in Excel 2010

Occasionally, when importing data into Excel you find that the some of the imported values are treated as text.

To convert these numbers to actual values, click on an empty cell and press Ctrl+C.

Next, select the range that contains the values you need to change and in the Clipboard Group on the Home tab, click the Paste drop-down arrow and choose Paste Special. In the Paste Special dialog box, select Add and then click OK.
