How do you round a number to two decimal places in C#?

Question

I want to do this using the Math.Round function

Answer 1

  public double RoundDown(double number, int decimalPlaces)
        {
            return Math.Floor(number * Math.Pow(10, decimalPlaces)) / Math.Pow(10, decimalPlaces);
        }

Answer 2

// convert upto two decimal places

String.Format("{0:0.00}", 140.6767554);        // "140.67"
String.Format("{0:0.00}", 140.1);             // "140.10"
String.Format("{0:0.00}", 140);              // "140.00"

Double d = 140.6767554;
Double dc = Math.Round((Double)d, 2);       //  140.67

decimal d = 140.6767554M;
decimal dc = Math.Round(d, 2);             //  140.67

=========

// just two decimal places
String.Format("{0:0.##}", 123.4567);      // "123.46"
String.Format("{0:0.##}", 123.4);         // "123.4"
String.Format("{0:0.##}", 123.0);         // "123"

can also combine "0" with "#".

String.Format("{0:0.0#}", 123.4567)       // "123.46"
String.Format("{0:0.0#}", 123.4)          // "123.4"
String.Format("{0:0.0#}", 123.0)          // "123.0"

Answer 3

I know its an old question but please note for the following differences between Math round and String format round:

decimal d1 = (decimal)1.125;
Math.Round(d1, 2).Dump();   // returns 1.12
d1.ToString("#.##").Dump(); // returns "1.13"

decimal d2 = (decimal)1.1251;
Math.Round(d2, 2).Dump();   // returns 1.13
d2.ToString("#.##").Dump(); // returns "1.13"

One thing you may want to check is the Rounding Mechanism of Math.Round:

Other than that, I recommend the Math.Round(inputNumer, numberOfPlaces) approach over the *100/100 one because it's cleaner.

Answer 5

string a = "10.65678";

decimal d = Math.Round(Convert.ToDouble(a.ToString()),2)

Answer 6

This is for rounding to 2 decimal places in C#:

label8.Text = valor_cuota .ToString("N2") ;

In VB.NET:

 Imports System.Math
 round(label8.text,2)
