Controlling significant figures in a calculation

    In the form, the values entered are whole numbers 1, 2 100, 1285  ... etc.

    A lookup is performed to calculate a new value based on a mathematical equation between 2 whole number inputs.

    finally, there is a 2nd lookup based on the result of the math equation.

    the output is a value with two decimal points. for example 99.13.  I only want to display one value beyond the decimal point.  Is there a way to do this?
