I have asked this before but I think Im a bit slow cos I still dont understand how it works?

on (release){  
extras = ((options.abQty_25)+(options.dustQty_9.50) + (options.truckQty \* 25) + (options.lightQty\*15));  
extras.text=extras;  
dayVal = day.value;  
DayVal = day.value;

rate = Math.ceil(DayVal/7);  
costa = rate\*storesize.selectedItem.data;  
total.text=costa + extras + packingSO.selectedItem.data ;  
}

I want total.text to contain a number with 2 decimal places this is a lot harder than I thought it would be? I thought there would just be an option or something like that?
