Javascript: Round up to the next multiple of 5

by

This will do the work:

function round5(x)
{
    return Math.ceil(x/5)*5;
}

It’s just a variation of the common rounding number to nearest multiple of x function Math.round(number/x)*x, but using .ceil instead of .round makes it always round up instead of down/up according to mathematical rules.
