Example Math round to 2 decimal places in JS

Simple example code.

<!DOCTYPE html>

<body>
  <script>
   let n = 10200300.5555;
   let res = Math.round(n * 100) / 100

   console.log(res);
 </script>
</body>
</html>

Output:

JavaScript Math round to 2 decimal places

If the value is a text type use this code

parseFloat("123.456").toFixed(2);

Using the toFixed method, It seems like Math.round is a better solution. But it is not!

Math.round(1.005 * 100)/100 // Returns 1 instead of expected 1.01!

In some cases it will NOT round correctly:

var numb = 123.23454;
numb = numb.toFixed(2);
