How can I format numbers to give me a whole remainder instead of a decimal? Say 113/24 = 4 with 17 remainder? instead of 4.7083333

I am using numbers for inventory at work. Head office wants everything in cases and a remainder. Say 4 cases of Bottled Soda with 17 remaining = 113bottles. When I punch it into numbers I get 4.7083333. How can I get rid of the decimal and end up with a whole number as the remainder? Is this making anysense?

Tori,
You might do this:
The expression in B is:
=QUOTIENT(A, 24)&" Cases and "&MOD(A,24)&" Bottles" You can express this in any form you like, this is just an example.

Jerry

  • Can i format numbers with spry?

    Can i format numbers for display with spry? I've got a number
    field and want to put commas in for thousand seperators and also
    need to pad some numbers with zeros....kinda like numberformat()
    really in CF, else i guess I have to do it with in my data
    preparation,
    thanks,
    john.

    Hi John,
    So if I were going to make this work with your XML, I would
    create a custom column on the fly after the data was loaded. This
    custom column would strip the formatting and convert the resulting
    numbers into real numbers. Also, for any rows that had nothing, it
    would stick a zero in this custom column.
    Then when it comes time for sorting, you sort on the custom
    column instead of the formatted one.
    Look at this example. It shows you how you can create custom
    columns:

  • How can I format a field in the form creator?

    How can I format a field in the form creator? It's putting the same text in all the fields within a table. I want each field within the table to have different text. As soon as you click out of the table, all the text is the same.
    I even changed the fields from a text box to a drop-down list so a person can make their selection, which will be a quantity from 0-9. There are two of these such fields. You make your selection in each, click off the table and both fields show whatever I selected in field 1. The original Qty I selected in the bottom field was a 5 but it changed it to whatever is in the top field on it's own. I've added a screen shot.

    This behaviors usually happens when you create the fields but  a copy paste command from one of the fields. The copy paste command assumes that your intentions is to maintain a copy of the field in two separate locations (e.i, a form field  "company name" printed in each and every page of a multi-page form document.
    Go to the properties fields of each field and make sure  to assign unique form field  names.

    How can I format an HD with System 10.4 and install Leopard Snow?

    You need to partion the hard drive using Disk Utility. On one partition install 10.4. On the other 10.6. As a note I trust you are doing this on a MBP and not a PPC Mac because 10.6 won't install.

  • How can I make Azure blob give me "206 Partial content" for mp4. Getting 200

    I want a video for my web-site, so I am using html+JavaScript found on view-source:https://www.airbnb.com/ 
    see id="pretzel-video"
    and script starting from   var video = $("#pretzel-video");
    The point is - if I copy html+JavaScript on my web-site, I can get "206 Partial content" from  airbnb.com, i.e. the video hosted on airbnb.com starts streaming immediately. 
    The same thing happens if I upload the same video to my domain hosted on arvixe.com and S3 Amazon
    The only provider that doesn't give me 206, but responds with 200 instead is Azure blob
    This is unacceptable, because the user has to wait until all the video is loaded.
    So how can I make Azure blob give me  "206 Partial content". I am hosting web-site on Azure also. 
    I am using airbnb.com video in all three cases to exclude possible errors related to codek etc.

    Hi Chao 
    Azure Blob storage  supports return 206 response if you're using API version 2011-01-18 or later . 
    However if
    don't originate the request which means you can't specify this using the request header , you can set the API version globally
    for blob service within  a storage account by using " Set
    Blob Service Properties" API , 
    If the above still couldn't solve your issue, we suggest you please contact Microsoft Azure technical support for further assistance.

  • HT1604 i erased my hfs+ with ubuntu, how can I format it back to hfs+ please help

    i erased my hfs+ with ubuntu, how can I format it back to hfs+ because ubuntu rejects the cd or usb formatted to mac os extended journaled and i am in a stalemate position. What can i do?

    You're running Ubuntu, and that operating system generally doesn't utilize HFS+. 
    That you're then asking this question implies you were intending to not do that, or that you were intending to run multiple operating systems within one GPT-partitioned disk. 
    I'm going to guess you wanted multiple operating systems.
    If you had intended to partition your disk and to use various file systems within the partitioning, then the command(s) that were used to partition or repartition your disk were not what was probably intended.  (And this presumes that the two systems share compatible boot paths; that's possible with a system that can coexist within Apple's Boot Camp or Ubuntu or another operating system booted as a guest within one of the add-on OS X virtual machine products.  I don't know for certain that Ubuntu can coexist.)
    To get OS X back onto this same volume, you'll need to figure out if you have a GPT and then what's in your GPT, and whether there's a partition large enough for OS X to exist, or whether you can repartition your GPT disk to allow OS X to be reinstalled or reloaded into the partition.  Or you'll need to wipe the whole disk, and replace its contents with a freshly-partitioned disk, and then load a copy of OS X that's been recovered from backup or freshly installed from distribution.  Or you'll need to provide another disk, and then partition and load an operating system (either Ubuntu or OS X) onto that as appropriate.
    The tools for doing the repartitioning within Ubuntu are best discussed with folks more familiar with that operating system; I'm not sufficiently conversant to suggest tools for that.  I'd suggest a forum specific to Ubuntu for that.  The tools used to repartition the disks on OS X generally involve the Disk Utility tool, whether booted from DVD (Snow Leopard), from the USB key disk (Lion), from an external OS X disk, or potentially using Target Disk Mode from another OS X system.  And the OS X tools for repartitioning are destructive; they generally don't save what's in the existing partitions, if you need to make an existing partition smaller.
    The usual sequence (and the one that's easiest to describe) to establish the environment starts by wiping the whole disk, and establishing GPT partitions of the appropirate sizes using Disk Utility or its Ubuntu GPT-aware analog, and then loading the target operating systems into each.  Alternatively, you can read the Boot Campe documentation, or review the documentation with the particular virtual machine product that you're going to choose and use on OS X for details of how to manage its guest operating systems.
    Without some idea of your end-goal here (and where you're stuck in the current environment), it's hard to provide more specific suggestions.
