      No ,
      Rounding issue ? in this case rounding the number to 2 significant figure .
      Then again round to with respect to the resolution.
      Here we needed to directly round to 2 significant figure
      At that time the above mentioned error is showing.
      I Check with both excel and online rounding the answer is different

        ajmal_pottekattil_yoousuf You also have to take into account what the cell format is. If you enter the number 0.007 into a cell and leave the format as "General", Excel will display it as 0.007, regardless of how it is rounded. Change the number format to display 4 decimals to get 0.0070 displayed.

         

        Also note that changing the # of displayed decimals may also affect rounding of the value shown in the cell (not of the value used for further calculations!)
