I need help moving a decimal place

[WhozitsPop]

Good morning all. I have the following that needs manipulating. The first set of numbers is the raw data I have access too.

Latitude: 3.13929
Longitude: -8.14461

I need it formatted like this:

Latitude: 31.3929
Longitude: -81.4461

I need to move that decimal place to the right one spot. Any ideas? I have thought of REPLACE, create new value and insert but my head hurts. I just need some ideas.

Thanks
Terry

Mulitply it by 10.

Multiply it by 10:

<cfset Latitude = 3.13929>
<cfset NewLatitude = Latitude * 10>
<cfset Longitude = -8.14461>
<cfset NewLongitude = Longitude * 10>

Don't be *too* hard on yourself. I think decimals come in Second Grade. :)

Ha! That's an excellent point.
