+Formats a number using fixed-point notation, if it has decimals.
+
+- Use `Number.prototype.toFixed()` to convert the number to a fixed-point notation string.
+- Use `Number.parseFloat()` to convert the fixed-point notation string to a number, removing trailing zeros.
+- Use a template literal to convert the number to a string.
+
+```js
+const toOptionalFixed = (num, digits) =>
+  `${Number.parseFloat(num.toFixed(digits))}`;
+```
+
+```js
+toOptionalFixed(1, 2); // '1'
+toOptionalFixed(1.001, 2); // '1'
+toOptionalFixed(1.500, 2); // '1.5'
+```
