Text says 'ceiling', code says `floor`, and maybe you could consider using `Math.round`, if you want, for example, 800 to be rounded up to 1000. – GolezTrol Feb 09 '16 at 07:26
clearly floor is right if you look at the example in the question – Jaromanda X Feb 09 '16 at 07:31

@DeviSiscaYulita I don't know how to do it. Also, it is not part of your OP. Kindly ask a separate question for the same. – gurvinder372 Feb 09 '16 at 13:33
it's good to use Math.ceil instead of floor in floor if you try to run Math.floor(500.5/500) * 500; this you will get 500 which is wrong but ceil will give 1000 Math.ceil(500.5/500) * 500; – VISHNU May 08 '18 at 08:11
