hi, i need to show a number to a user : 1.96666777 (timeHour)

moduloformat = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%0.0f hours ",timeHour];

but it is rounding off the number automaticly. It gives "2" and i want to show "1" i could use a NSrange and take the first number but i wanna know how to deal with this. Thanks!!
