Hello how do I round the following to two decimal places .
echo
"<div class='quote-results-result'>ex VAT £" .
((($_POST['qtylitres'] * $price ['Price']) + $fuelmargin['margin']) / 1.2) .
"</div>"
I need to round the price bit of a php novice.

round($VARIABLE_NAME,2);
//This rounds off the variable to 2 decimal places

Use round function from php manuals
echo round(3.4); // 3
echo round(3.5); // 4
echo round(3.6); // 4
echo round(3.6, 0); // 4
echo round(1.95583, 2); // 1.96
echo round(1241757, -3); // 1242000
echo round(5.045, 2); // 5.05
echo round(5.055, 2); // 5.06

Use number_format function like this:
$number = 1234.56789
$new_number = number_format($number, 2, '.', '');
echo $new_number;
Output: 1234.57
