Drop 0 value in decimal places

Question

I want to ask if anybody know the query to drop the 0 value in decimal..

E.g : A field name percent have these values

Percent

770.00000000000000000000,

Answer 1

You could use a combination of DECIMAL and FLOAT. Decimal first to round it down to 2 deciaml places, then float to remove unwanted 0's

e.g.

select cast(cast([Percent] as decimal(9,2)) AS FLOAT) as [Percent] 

With the example of 340.69999999999999, first it round to 340.70, then it takes away the zero giving you 340.7. As with any rounding some precision will be lost.
