Adding a decimal to a raw number

Hello folks,
Here is my problem. I have a raw number 123456789, i would like to add a decimal place to this raw number so it is displayed as 1234567.89. Whenever i use the format function it displays as 123456789.00.

Thank you,

Thank you,
use the format function and divide it!

123456789 / 100 = 1234567.89

you can use 123456789 / (10^n)

where n are the decimal places.
