Help with a ROUND function

Question

Hi everyone, can someone please help me with a function to use here please. I have a nine digit number e,g (000046650 and 024063870). I would like to convert this to 4 digits before the comma and 5 digits after the comma. So it must be something like this (0000,46650 and 0240,63870). I thought I could easily do this with a ROUND function, but it doesn't work. Could somebody please help by telling me what I'm missing?
Thank you all for your help.

Hi,
I must be missing something, but why don't you just divide by 10000 ?Scott@my11g SQL>with d as (
  2  select 000046650 n from dual
  3  union all
  4  select 024063870 from dual
  5  )
  6  select n/10000 from d ;
   N/10000
     4.665
  2406.387You can then use a to_char with fmt to format it with zero padding :Scott@my11g SQL>with d as (
  2  select 000046650 n from dual
  3  union all
  4  select 024063870 from dual
  5  )
  6  select to_char(n/10000,'0000.00000') nn from d ;
NN
0004.66500
2406.38700
