With £15,479,563 in A1:

=A1/1000000 formatted to show 3 decimal places.

Directly:

=15479563/1000000 formatted as currency with 3 decimal places.

or go to format cells and use the custom format

remember the trailing comma!

Also please note this may be different depending on your regional settings
