This tutorial will demonstrate how to round, round up, or round down to the nearest 5 or .5 in Excel and Google Sheets.
Round to Nearest 5
To round to the nearest 5, you can simply use the MROUND Function with multiple = 5.
=MROUND(B3,5)
By changing 5 to 50, you can round to the nearest 50 or you can use .5 to round to the nearest .5.
Round Up to Nearest 5
To round up to the nearest 5, use the CEILING Function with multiple = 5.
=CEILING(B3,5)
Of course, you can use .5 to round up to the nearest .5 instead.
Round Down to Nearest 5
To round down to the nearest 5, use the FLOOR Function with multiple = 5.
=FLOOR(B3,5)
