I currently use indicator-sysmonitor
to see my CPU and RAM percentage in my system tray. But I would like to add my CPU speed. Now I know there are multiple commands (e.g. lscpu | grep "CPU-frequentie"
(Dutch) ) to get the CPU speed but I want in a way like this: 2.85 GHz.
How do I alter an output like 2850.153 to something like the 2.85 GHz?

You may find the following a shorter example:
Note that, on my system, using an AMD CPU and lscpu version 2.27.1 on ubuntu server 16.04 (64 bit) I have lines in the output as follows:
The awk command uses ":" as the field separator. It looks for the line starting "CPU MHz" and then simply prints the value over 1000 (convert MHz to GHz) using 3.2 format -- three significant figures with two decimal places.
From your question, you appear to be looking for "CPU-frequentie" is the lscpu output. I don't know what the output of your lscpu looks like, but I assume that you might need to substitute "CPU-frequentie" for "CPU MHz" in the awk line
For completeness, the output I get on my system is:
