Definition of MROUND:

Rounds one number to the nearest integer multiple of another.

Sample Usage

MROUND(21,14)

MROUND(A2,3)

Syntax

MROUND(value,factor)

• value - The number to round to the nearest integer multiple of another.

• factor - The number to whose multiples value will be rounded.

Notes

• Both value and factor may be non-integral.

• value and factor must have the same sign; that is, they must both be positive or both negative. If either is zero,MROUND will return 0.

• If value is equally close to two multiples of factor, the multiple with the greater absolute value will be returned.
