Ugh... After using integers to keep accuracy in the LSB, you know toss
it out the window by converting to a float which may have an inexact
representation.
Presuming you kept track of the decimal place during all those integer
operations, format as an integer, then split it at the decimal and insert a
"." at the spot.
