How slow is floating point math really?

We currently have a couple floating point operations in our program. Is it absolutely vital that we change these? I know that I can multiply by 100 or 1000 to get rid the the decimal point, but I'd rather not for these operations.

So what do you guys think?

Thanks,
Nathan
