๐Ÿงฒ Round Number To โ€ฆ

In addition to rounding numbers simply to the nearest 100th using Notion formulas, I want to show you how you can return numbers to the nearest midpoint (.5), multiple of 5, 10, and 25. This can be especially useful for those working with robust grading systems, inventory, analytics, etc. inside Notion databases.

On Rounding Numbers

You can replace any one of these formulas with the following functions.

  • round() - round number

  • ceil() - round number to highest return

  • floor() - round number to lowest return
