Rounding values
You've learned how built-in functions can be used as a shortcut to creating complex formulas in Google Sheets.
Functions take inputs, also known as arguments, and return an output, which is the result of the calculation.
You'll begin working with built-in functions using a dataset containing natural satellites (moons) of solar system planets. The dataset contains four columns:
Name
: The name of the moonParent
: The planet that the moon orbitsMean radius (km)
: The average radius of the moon from its physical centerSidereal period (days)
: The time taken for the moon to orbit its parent planet
