Round function in excel
In this article, we will discuss round function in excel
What is rounding of numbers?
Rounding of numbers (decimal numbers) means replacing it with another value which is
approximately equal to the original value. For example
1. Rounding of .999 is 1
2. Rounding of .777 is .78
But the question is - why do we need rounding of decimal numbers. The answer is, the
value obtained from rounding of decimal number is easy to report.
For example, telling the HR of a company that your current salary is 49999.99 rupee is
more frustrating, but rather you can say that my current salary is approximately 50000
rupees.
