I'm struggling to work out a formula to round off time to the nearest 15 minutes.

Basically the numbers are timesheet entries and they need to be rounded in the following format:

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Current Format[/TD]
[TD]Desired Output[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]02:19:04[/TD]
[TD]2.5[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]01:37:00[/TD]
[TD]1.5[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]03:55:23[/TD]
[TD]4[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

I've been able to round it in decimal points, but just can't get the formula to work perfectly.

This is what I have done...

First calculation:
=HOUR(R[4]C[-3]) + MINUTE(R[4]C[-3]) /60 +SECOND(R[4]C[-3]) / 3600
Second calculation:
=FLOOR(RC[-2],0.25)

It's not working, so I must be completely wrong. Any help would be much appreciated!
 

Excel Facts

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
Do you want to round up, round down, or round to the nearest 0.25?
