Rounding number based on arbitrary value

This formula says that if B1 is lower than 5 then the answer is 5. If it is higher than 5 then it is 0 so the formula is working fine?

What do you want the cell to equal if B1 is greater than 5?

Will this work?

If B1 is less than 5 , the result will be 5
Otherwise the result will be the value in B1 itself.

Your formula is working!

However, actually this formula is for a series of calculation and the formula in A1 is basically for rounding the value, e.g

The cell B1 is 4.25, I need in A1 to be rounded bigger than 4.25 which is 5. But for this formula =IF(B1<5,5,B1), when I set the B1 7.1 the result is 7.1 not 8...

Try this ...

=MAX(5,ROUNDUP(B1,0))

This works very well!! Thanks Phuocam... I have changed 5 to 0, and now it works for any value!

Just want to ask, if there is any command that can result only for EVEN number, e.g.

The reference number is 4.5 and the rounded result will be 6, is there any kind of command that work in that way?

Yeah this also works!! Thanks chullan88!!

Well guys, I did formulate that result only for EVEN number by using EVEN function. So, this thread is solved...

Once again, Thanks for your time and help chullan88 and phuocam!!!

If your problem is solved,please add rep for those who have helped.
