Solution 1

Multiply by 100 before taking on the precision.

Try:

VB

=formatnumber(100*(SUM(IIf(Fields!Gender.Value = "F",Fields!Eligibleteachers.Value,0)))/(SUM(IIf(Fields!Gender.Value = "F",Fields!CountTeachers.Value,0))),1)

Thanks Sandeep it worked, great. I also find a way to get what i wanted. I just needed a 3 decimal places,if this is multiplied by 100 it will displace two decimals hence i will have 1 decimal place
