Examples for the floor math formula
Copy these examples into a spreadsheet and adjust the ranges for your own data.
FLOOR.MATH syntax pattern
=FLOOR.MATH(number, [increment], [negative_mode])Use this FLOOR.MATH pattern as the starting point for your spreadsheet formula.
FLOOR.MATH in a worksheet
=FLOOR.MATH(A2, [increment], [negative_mode])Rounds a number down or toward zero to the next multiple of increment. If increment is omitted, it is assumed to be 1.
When to use FLOOR.MATH
Use FLOOR.MATH when you need to round a number down or toward zero to the next multiple of increment. FLOOR.MATH if increment is omitted, it is assumed to be 1.
- Build totals, rounded metrics, and numeric calculations.
- Clean up numeric inputs before analysis.
How FLOOR.MATH works in Quadratic
In Quadratic, FLOOR.MATH follows the syntax FLOOR.MATH(number, [increment], [negative_mode]). The function works inside Quadratic formulas and can be combined with spreadsheet ranges, tables, and other formulas.
Common FLOOR.MATH mistakes
Most FLOOR.MATH issues come from mismatched argument types, ranges that do not cover the intended data, or optional parameters being omitted when the default behavior is not what you expected.
- Check each required parameter before copying the formula across a sheet.
- Confirm that ranges line up with the rows or columns you intend to analyze.
- Use Quadratic AI to explain or debug the formula when the result looks wrong.
