How do you round to 1 decimal place in Javascript?

Question

Can you round a number in javascript to 1 character after the decimal point (properly rounded)?

I tried the *10, round, /10 but it leaves two decimals at the end of

Answer 1

Try with this:

var original=28.453

// 1.- round "original" to two decimals
var result = Math.round (original * 100) / 100  //returns 28.45

// 2.- round "original" to 1 decimal
var result = Math.round (original * 10) / 10  //returns 28.5

// 3.- round 8.111111 to 3 decimals
var result = Math.round (8.111111 * 1000) / 1000  //returns 8.111

less complicated and easier to implement...

with this, you can create a function to do:

function RoundAndFix (n, d) {
    var m = Math.pow (10, d);
    return Math.round (n * m) / m;
}

function RoundAndFix (n, d) {
    var m = Math.pow (10, d);
    return Math.round (n * m) / m;
}
console.log (RoundAndFix(8.111111, 3));
