Live result123.46123.4567 ÷ 0.01 = 12,345.67; nearest step 12,346 × increment = 123.46.

Formula used

Rounded value = round(value ÷ increment) × increment for nearest rounding. Use ceiling(value ÷ increment) × increment to round up, or floor(value ÷ increment) × increment to round down.

This is the method behind the answer, so the result can be checked rather than simply trusted.

Answer: 123.46
Live support: 123.4567 ÷ 0.01 = 12,345.67; nearest step 12,346 × increment = 123.46.

Assumptions used

What this answer assumes

Keep the original number and rounding rule on the printed report so the rounded value can be audited later.

Mode 0 rounds to the nearest increment; halfway cases follow JavaScript Math.round behavior, which rounds 0.5 upward toward positive infinity.
Mode 1 always rounds upward with ceiling arithmetic; mode 2 always rounds downward with floor arithmetic.
The increment must be positive. Common increments are 1, 0.1, 0.01 and 0.05.
The displayed decimal places control formatting only; the rounding increment controls the arithmetic.
Financial, tax, scientific, school and payroll records may require official rounding rules that differ from this general calculator.

Master’s Tip

How to use the result well

Master’s Tip: write down the rounding rule before the rounded answer. “Nearest cent”, “always round up to a pack”, and “round down to a conservative estimate” can produce different records from the same starting number.

Inputs

Number to round: 123.457
Decimal places to display: 2
Rounding increment: 0.01
Mode: 0 0 nearest, 1 up, 2 down

Method

Rounded value = round(value ÷ increment) × increment for nearest rounding. Use ceiling(value ÷ increment) × increment to round up, or floor(value ÷ increment) × increment to round down.

For 123.4567 rounded to the nearest 0.01, divide by 0.01 to get 12,345.67. Round that to 12,346, then multiply by 0.01. The result is 123.46. If the increment were 0.05, the nearest result would be 123.45.

Assumptions

Mode 0 rounds to the nearest increment; halfway cases follow JavaScript Math.round behavior, which rounds 0.5 upward toward positive infinity.
Mode 1 always rounds upward with ceiling arithmetic; mode 2 always rounds downward with floor arithmetic.
The increment must be positive. Common increments are 1, 0.1, 0.01 and 0.05.
The displayed decimal places control formatting only; the rounding increment controls the arithmetic.
