[Solved] Getting a percentage of float without digits before decimal point

You want to get fractional part and truncate it up to two digits. If values are positive and small you can implement it like this:

 private static double Solution(double value) {
    return (long)((value - (long)value) * 100) / 100.0;
 }

Test:

 double[] test = new double[] {
   0.433432,
   0.672919,
   3.826342,
   6.783643, };

 var result = test
   .Select(item => $"{item} -> {Solution(item)}")
   .ToArray();

 Console.Write(string.Join(Environment.NewLine, result));

Outcome:

 0.433432 -> 0.43
 0.672919 -> 0.67
 3.826342 -> 0.82
 6.783643 -> 0.78

Edit: What’s going on in the Solution method:

  • value - (long) value – integer part removing

  • (long) ((...) * 100) – scaling up and truncate

  • () / 100.0 – scaling down back

If we have, say, 1234.5789 these three stages will be:

  • 0.5789 – integer part removing

  • 57 – scale up and truncate

  • 0.57 – scaling down back
