You can format decimal values in C# as so:

String.Format("{0:0.00}", 123.4567);      // "123.46"
String.Format("{0:0.00}", 123.4);         // "123.40"
String.Format("{0:0.00}", 123.0);         // "123.00"

Given the above, you should be able to do:

grid.Column("Val", format: @<text>@String.Format("{0:0.00}", (decimal)(100/3)) </text>)
