Having some trouble rounding decimal place

Question

Hello all,
I am having some issues rounding a decimal in my code. My program is running and doing what I would like otherwise. Here is what I have so far:
public class MortCalc2
     public static void main(String [] args)
          //Declare and initialize three variables
          double numloanamt = 200000.00; //loan amount of 200k
          double numinterest = 0.0575;  //interest rate of 5.75%
          int numtermyrs = 30;  //term of 30 years
          int numtermmths = 360;  //term of 360 months
          double numwholeamt = 545000.00;  //loan amount + interest
          double numpayment = 0;  //monthly payment
          numpayment = numwholeamt/numtermmths;  //payment equals loan amount plus interest divided by the total term in months
          System.out.println("Your monthly payment is $" + numpayment);
}I am getting the results I want with the calculation except they are coming out as 1513.888888888889. I would like to see 1513.89. Can someone point me in the right direction. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
Thanks,
Seawall

Hi, sorry for the first post.
this works okay.
import java.math.*;
public class MortCalc2
     public static void main(String [] args){
are and initialize three variables
double numloanamt = 200000.00; //loan amount of
of 200k
double numinterest = 0.0575;  //interest rate of
of 5.75%
          int numtermyrs = 30;  //term of 30 years
          int numtermmths = 360;  //term of 360 months
double numwholeamt = 545000.00;  //loan amount +
+ interest
          double numpayment = 0;  //monthly paymen
numpayment = numwholeamt/numtermmths;  //payment
t equals loan amount plus interest divided by the
total term in months
numpayment =
Math.round(numpayment*100.0) / 100.0;
System.out.println("Your monthly payment is $" +
+ numpayment);
Thats right, use an Irish screwdriver (a hammer) instead of the correct solution as posted by djmd02 in repsonse #3.
