Decimal Numbers

[Dysan]

Hi,

 

With reference to decimal numbers, how do I keep only the first 2 numbers after the decimal point?

 

<?php
$number = 5.5;
echo $number / 3;
?>

check number_format function

Is it possible to just cut the numbers off after the 2 numbers following the decimal place?

if you want to just truncate after the 2 decimals, do this:

$truncatednumber =   floor($startnumber * 100)  / 100;
