Hi Ishara,

I think what you are looking for is io:sprintf().

Eg -

float f = 123.4567;
// This will format the floating point number to 2 decimal points.
io:println(io:sprintf("%.2f", f));

More info on sprintf function is available at
https://ballerina.io/learn/api-docs/ballerina/io.html#sprintf.
Thanks,
Shan.
