<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have a table1 that saves the duration for a trip. table1 contains the following columns:<br />
hourStart<br />
hourEnd<br />
minuteStart<br />
minuteEnd<br />
<br />
To calculate the duration of the trip, I am using the following query:<br />
select ((hourEnd-hourStart) + ((cast((minuteEnd-minuteSt<wbr />art) as decimal))/60)) as trip &nbsp;from table1<br />
<br />
This works, except the results have too many zero's at the end:<br />
1.500000<br />
<br />
I want to format this as followed:<br />
1.50 <br />
<br />
Is there a way to decrease the decimal places (or remove the extra zero's at the end)?
