Javascript - Double values without floating points?

Question

Which type of variable should I use in order to calculate double values without floating points?

i.e. let x = 0.6;

I want x*3/4 to be calculated as 0.45 instead of 0.44999999999999996.

There is only one type of number in Javascript... Number :)

You might try something like .toFixed()

(0.6 * 3/4).toFixed(2) => 0.45
