roundup to 60 or 70 or 50
 

This is probably an easy question but i'm in it so deep that i totally
do not see the answer.

I get the number 61;
I need to know the nearest decimal up. So I need to know 70.

how do I do that?

I'm totally stuck.

$roundup = $num % 10 ? $num - $num % 10 + 10 : $num;

I usually cheat with something like 10*int(($num+9)/10), if I know
they're all integers.
