Syntax: =ROUND(number, num_digits) Arguments: •

number

Required  The number that you want to round.

num_digits

Required  The number of digits to which you want to round the number argument.

Microsoft ® Excel ® Mathematical Functions

Description: • Rounds a number to a specified number of digits.

Remarks: • If num_digits is greater than 0 (zero), then number is rounded to the specified number of decimal places.

• If num_digits is 0, the number is rounded to the nearest integer. • If num_digits is less than 0, the number is rounded to the left of the decimal point.

Errors:

None

o Criteria can be expressed as 32, ">32", B5, "32", "apples", or TODAY().

sum_range

Optional  The actual cells to add, if you want to add cells other than those specified in the range argument.

o Excel adds the cells that are specified in the range argument (the same cells to which the criteria is applied).
