How to first average a range and then round the value
Requirement:
The user needs to average cells A1:A10, then round up, but to round up when the number is greater than or equal to ".6" or to round down when the number is less than ".6"
i.e.
Cell calculation =< 4.5 (result is 4)
or
Cell calculation => 4.6 (result is 5)
Solution:
=IF(MOD(AVERAGE(A1:A10),1)>0.5,ROUNDUP(AVERAGE(A1:A10),0),ROUNDDOWN(AVERAGE(A1:A10),0))
To make the result show blank " " if there is no data in the range enter the following formula:
=IFERROR(IF(MOD(AVERAGE(A1:A10),1)>0.5,ROUNDUP(AVERAGE(A1:A10),0),ROUNDDOWN(AVERAGE(A1:A10),0)),0)
