Truncate out

[cytotoxictcell]

hi,
I wrote a small program to compute BMI, but is there a way to truncate the output of this?

import java.util.Scanner;

public class ComputeBMI {
    public static void main(String[] arg) {

	//Create an instance of the Scanner
	Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

	    //Input
	    System.out.print("Enter weight in Pounds: ");
	double Weight = input.nextDouble();
	    System.out.print("Enter height in inches: ");
	    double Height = input.nextDouble();

	    //Math and variables
	    double BMI = (Weight / (Height * Height)) * 703;
	   
	    //Display Result
	    System.out.println("Your BMI is " + BMI);
    }
}

on the output i get Your BMI is 26.854599999999998. How can i make it so i get like 26.8573?
