Consider this scenario: I need to calculate 3 divided by 6, which equals 0.5 as a floating number. However, when I used the javascript toFixed(6) method to round it to 6 decimal points, it returned '0.500000' as a string instead of a floating number. How can I obtain a floating number with 6 digits after the dot(.)? I attempted the following but it did not yield the desired result.
parseFloat((3/6).toFixed(6))
//output = 0.5 but i want 0.500000
