Below is the input and output for a sql query:

Input Output

12 12.00
12.1 12.10
12.12 12.12
12.123 12.12

For any above input to sql statement there should be corresponding
output.

1. Is there any sql function available for this purpose?
2. How to write query without using any sql function to perform this?

"Inputs" are numbers. "Output" is a formatted number. In order to format it, use the TO_CHAR function.

In SQL*Plus, you might use the SET NUMFORMAT to force desired output format. Other (GUI) tools (such as Forms or Reports Builder) will allow you to specify desired format for each item/field.
Bold terms can be researched at
