    Not sure what you mean exactly.

    Re: Decimal number on lower level or higher level

    We are from Europe. I use Office PRO Excel version 2007. When I calculate =1998/400, I get a result like 4,995. As I need to bring such number to the lowest rounded number, need to know how to manage this using formula settings. An example: 4,995 should be rounded to 4.

    You can use:

    =ROUNDDOWN(yourformula,0) as suggested in Post 2.

    Invisible problems are hard to diagnose. Read the yellow banner (top) and post a sample sheet.

    Re: Decimal number on lower level or higher level

    Also you were asked to add your approx (national) location. N/a means nothing. You stated Europe... that's too vague. Here we use , as the separator. In many other countries ; is used.

    Kindly, DO NOT ignore requests from Forum Moderators.

    Re: Decimal number on lower level or higher level

    Thank you for all help. I have managed using pure menu options. Your suggestions fixes when I go step by step using menu. It is more accurate.
    It works perfect: =ROUNDDOWN(J4;0)

    Re: Decimal number on lower level or higher level

    rounddown() is supported in version 2007
    so Why does
    I have tried. =ROUNDDOWN(D7/H4,0) will not work.
    not work, as suggested a sample spreadsheet would help to see why

    As you can see from the attached spreadsheeet = D7=4.96 and H4 = 1 - so result in A1 should be 4.96 - but i used rounddown() and got 4
