To get Decimal back use Math.Round with Second parameter specifying number of decimal points.

decimal d = 54.9700M;    
decimal f = (Math.Round(d, 2)); // 54.97

To Get String representation of number use .ToString() Specifiying Decimal Points as N3. Where 3 is the decimal points

decimal d = 54.9700M;    
string s = number.ToString("N3"); // "54.97"
