That works. Thanks everyone who responded! I also found that numberformat
with a mask of 999999.9 rounds it correctly also. Don't really know why
though.

That's not an integer. LOL
This is the way I do it:
<cfset number = "2.146752">
<cfset number = round(2.146752 * 10) / 10>
= 2.1
Add another 0 for each decimal you want to round to:
<cfset number = round(2.146752 * 100) / 100>
= 2.15
<cfset number = round(2.146752 * 1000) / 1000>
= 2.147
