Replace the last character of a string in c# [duplicate]

Question

I have this string :

 string lat ="24.6669863852163";

how can I replace the last Character '3' by '2' ?

@TimSchmelter - I just realized my mistake (which is why I deleted the comment as it was inaccurate and misleading). — Tim

question is not clear. Replacing only "3" by "2", or any character by precedent ? lat.Substring(0, lat.Length - 1) + (char)(lat[lat.Length - 1] - 1) — Xaruth

No offense, but why was there no explanation?

Substring would be a better choice than Remove
