how do I round hours worked to the next half hour with a 24hr shif

I was wondering how to round to make it easier and more bentificial to the
employees that once you continue into the next 1/2 hour that it would round
the hour up IE example if I work 10.12 hours it will round it up to 11
hours. Here is the formula that I am using to figure the hours worked with
entering the actual military time the person is going to work
=(E15-C15+(E15<C15))*24 this is in Colum E3 figuring hours worked out of A3
and C3 if you can help with this it would be greatly appreciated

Assuming you are using decimal hours

=CEILING(10.12,0.5)

will round up to the nearest 0.5 hours but what you seem to want is

=CEILING(10.12,1)

since you want 10.12 to round to 11, that is not half hour but nearest hour
