Rounding Numbers

[C]

Hi,

I have some logic that rounds decimal numbers

E.g

Math.Round(2657 9.80)

This gives
26580

However I want to get the nearest thousand which should
give
27000

How can I do this?

Thanks,
C

Re: Rounding Numbers

Take the original number, divide by 1000 - then round that number... then
multiply by 1000..

A) 26580 / 1000 = 26.58
B) 26.58 rounded = 27
C) 27 * 1000 = 27000

What do you think?

Re: Rounding Numbers

Thanks for your reply.

I am adding a series of numbers that are like 200,1243.42

I then want to round to the nearest thousand?

Any ideas?
