Why is the floating point value not displayed using toFixed(2)?

My variable storing the value 2.448, like this:

var prIceCream = 2.448

I want to show in the browser this decimal number with two places after the floating point.

prIceCream.toFixed(2)
document.writeln(`Value: ${prIceCream}`)

But the browser doesn't display as it should, while in the terminal it works:

enter image description here

I tried it another way, writing toFixed(2) inside the Template String, after my variable, like this:

var prIceCream = 2.448
document.writeln(`Value: ${prIceCream.toFixed(2)}`)

This solved my problem! But why didn't it work outside of document.writeln, as I wrote before?
