Rounding

=Round (_______,x)  (x denominates the number of decimal places)

=Roundup (_______,x)

=Rounddown (_______,x)

e.g. =Round(salary1/12,0)


If Function

=if (text, true, false)

e.g. =if(c2>b2,c2*5%,”You’re fired”) 

text must always be surrounded by speech marks


Nested function

=if(c2=b2,c2*5%, if(c2>b2,c2*10%,”You’re fired”))

=if  test, true click on FZ test, true, false

if conditional formatting, always a good idea to name the range
