This template should always be substituted (i.e. use {{subst:Cents}}).

This template calculates the cent value of its first argument (defaults to 1). An optional second argument controls the precision, it defaults to 0 decimal places.

Usage

Use this template like this 

{{subst: cents|ratio|prec}}

Example

This input in the wiki source 

{{subst: cents|3/2|5}}

produces the following output

701.95500

Intervals can even be typed as evaluable mathematical expressions. For example: 

{{subst: cents|3^12/2^19|5}}

gives:

23.46001

Add in a lowercase C to the end of the expression to add {{c}}: 

{{subst: cents|5/4c|2}}

gives:

386.31 ¢

Add in an uppercase C to add {{cent}}: 

{{subst: cents|5/4C|2}}

gives:

386.31 ¢
