Please learn how to use perldoc, Google, &/or books.
The first hit on a Google search for "perldoc sprintf" gives this:
# Round number to 3 digits after decimal point
$rounded = sprintf("%.3f", $number);
<http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.8.4/pod/func/sprintf.html>
Hopefully you can figure out how to adapt this for 2 digits.
