Hi all,

I am interested in having my excel sheet reflect my prices in /32's so i did the format that i saw while browsing the interenet which is "# ??/32" The issue arrives when the number above in the equation is not a fixed number. So for example:

Price(Decimal) | Price(32's) | Excel Output
97.484375 97-15.5/32 97-16/32 ====> So thats a pretty big issue

97.53125 97-17/32 97-17/32 ====> Only work when number is not a decimal...

Keep in mind....the output still needs to be a value/number since calculations will run from it.


So thats is my issue, hope somebody can help me out. Thanks a lot!

Create a Pivot Table on a Map
If your data has zip codes, postal codes, or city names, select the data and use Insert, 3D Map. (Found to right of chart icons).
Sorry, but you can't have decimals in the numerator or denominator of a fraction. Could you live with 64ths instead of 32nds?
