Look up DecimalFormat
You'll need to create the format on that object:
String pattern = "0.##"; // or "0.00" depending if you want 1.5 to
show a 1.5 or 1.50
DecimalFormat my_formatter = new DecimalFormat (pattern);
String formatted_string = my_formatter.format (1.23456789)

You could put the pattern directly into the constructor to only take 2
lines of code instead of 3.
