Do you actually want a number like 2758.59375 to round down to 2758.5? I would expect that number to be rounded to 2758.6, personally. Depending if you want it to round down, round up, or round to nearest, the code is slightly different.

The simplest way is to say:

> var num = 2758.59375
> num.toFixed(1)
2758.6
