Displaying decimal in X/32 or X/16 in same cell












0















In cell "H27" the decimal total is .95692. I want to take the decimal amount in "H27" and display it as a fraction in "H30".



The total in this example is over 61/64", so I want it to round to the next 64th or as 15/16".

  • you can use # ??/?? but it will not always be a power of 2 in the denominator.

    The next 64th is 31/32 not 15/16 which is down not up.
