EXCEL FLOOR FUNCTION

Parameter list:

  • number – the numeric value to be rounded.
  • multiple – the rounded multiple to use.

Step By Step Guide of FLOOR Function

Example as :

  • =FLOOR(5.7,2)
    Rounds 5.7 to the closest two-digit multiple, which is 4.
  • =FLOOR(-5.5,-2) reduces -5.5 to the closest multiple of -2, resulting in a value of -4.
  • =FLOOR(2.5,-2)
    Because the signs of 2.5 and -2 are different, it returns an error value #NUM!
  • =FLOOR(2.58,0.1) 2.58 is rounded to the next multiple of 0.1, which is 2.5.
  • =FLOOR(0.334,0.01) reduces the value of 0.334 to the nearest multiple of 0.01 (0.33).
  • FLOOR returns the #VALUE! error value if either of the parameters is nonnumeric.
  • FLOOR returns the #NUM! error value if the number is positive and the significance is negative.
  • The value is rounded down and modified away from zero if the sign of the integer is negative.
  • There is no rounding if the number is an exact multiple of significance.
