Decimal.ToSingle() Method in C# Last Updated : 11 Jul, 2025 Comments Improve Suggest changes Like Article Like Report This method is used to convert the value of the specified Decimal to the equivalent single-precision floating-point number. This method can produce round-off errors as a single-precision floating-point number has few significant digits than a Decimal. Syntax: public static float ToSingle (decimal d); Here, d is the decimal number which is to be converted. Return value: It returns a single-precision floating-point number equivalent to d. Example: csharp // C# program to demonstrate the // Decimal.ToSingle(Decimal) Method using System; class GFG { // Main Method public static void Main() { try { // Taking decimal variables Decimal dec1 = 0.0000000000134563456789M; Decimal dec2 = 4589662514452860951234M; // using ToSingle(Decimal) Method float val1 = Decimal.ToSingle(dec1); // using ToSingle(Decimal) Method float val2 = Decimal.ToSingle(dec2); // Printing the float value Console.WriteLine("The float value " + "is : {0}", val1); // Printing the float value Console.WriteLine("The float value " + "is : {0}", val2); } catch (OverflowException e) { Console.Write("Exception Thrown: "); Console.Write("{0}", e.GetType(), e.Message); } } } Output: The float value is : 1.345635E-11 The float value is : 4.589663E+21 Reference: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.decimal.tosingle?view=netcore-2.2 Comment More info K Kirti_Mangal Follow Improve Article Tags : C# CSharp-method CSharp-Decimal-Struct Explore IntroductionC# Tutorial 4 min read Introduction to .NET Framework 6 min read C# .NET Framework (Basic Architecture and Component Stack) 6 min read C# Hello World 2 min read Common Language Runtime (CLR) in C# 4 min read FundamentalsC# Identifiers 2 min read Data Types in C# 6 min read C# Variables 4 min read C# Literals 5 min read Operators in C# 7 min read C# Keywords 5 min read Control StatementsC# Decision Making (if, if-else, if-else-if ladder, nested if, switch, nested switch) 5 min read C# Switch Statement 4 min read Loops in C# 4 min read C# Jump Statements (Break, Continue, Goto, Return and Throw) 4 min read OOP ConceptsClass and Objects in C# 4 min read Constructors in C# 5 min read C# Inheritance 3 min read Encapsulation in C# 2 min read C# Abstraction 4 min read MethodsMethods in C# 4 min read Method Overloading in C# 4 min read C# | Method Parameters 7 min read Method Overriding in C# 7 min read Anonymous Method in C# 2 min read ArraysArrays in C# 6 min read Jagged Arrays in C# 4 min read Array Class in C# 5 min read How to Sort an Array in C# | Array.Sort() Method Set - 1 8 min read How to find the rank of an array in C# 2 min read ArrayListArrayList in C# 6 min read C# ArrayList Class 7 min read C# | Array vs ArrayList 2 min read StringStrings in C# 6 min read C# Verbatim String Literal - @ 5 min read C# String Class 9 min read C# StringBuilder 4 min read C# String vs StringBuilder 3 min read TupleC# Tuple 7 min read C# Tuple Class 3 min read C# ValueTuple 7 min read C# ValueTuple Struct 4 min read IndexersC# Indexers 4 min read C# Multidimensional Indexers 5 min read C# - Overloading of Indexers 3 min read Like
