Add trailing zero to calculation

[jester626]

This is probably pretty simple but I can't seem to find the exact answer I am looking for.

 

I am pulling a couple of numbers from a database (productcost and productprice).  I am trying to subtract the cost from the price to calculate the profit of the item.  I have this part working with no problem. My problem lies when the final number has a trailing zero it will drop that number (i.e. 1.2 as opposed to 1.20)

 

Here is what I am using:

$profit = $row_viewcoils['ProductPrice'] - $row_viewcoils['ProductCost'];

echo $profit;

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated

number_format() function you need.

echo number_format($profit, 2);

That did the trick, thank you so much
