    Resolved [RESOLVED] Decimal numbers help.

    Hello,

    I was wondering how can I get the two numbers right of the decimal period? If I had 2.85874125639, I would want to get this: 2.86 since it was rounded...

    Thanks in advance!

    Re: Decimal numbers help.

    Am I correct in assuming you just want to round the number?

    vb.net Code:
    1. MessageBox.Show(Math.Round(2.85874125639D, 2).ToString())
