How to round numbers to a specified number of decimal places using the ROUND function in Google Sheets?

To round numbers to a specific number of decimal places in Google Sheets using the ROUND function, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Open your Google Sheets document.
  2. Select the cell where you want to display the rounded number.
  3. Enter the formula using the ROUND function in the cell. The basic syntax of the ROUND function is ROUND(number, decimals).
    • 'number' is the value or cell reference you wish to round.
    • 'decimals' is the number of decimal places to which you want to round the number.
  4. Press Enter to apply the formula.

For example, let's say you have a number in cell A1 and you want to round it to 2 decimal places. In this case, you would enter the following formula in another cell:

=ROUND(A1, 2)

This formula will round the number in cell A1 to 2 decimal places. You can adjust the 'decimals' parameter to any desired number, depending on your rounding needs.
