Frequently Asked Questions

Should I round numbers before calculating?

Keep the original input precision through the calculation and round the final answer to the precision you need. Rounding an intermediate result can change later steps.

Why can a manual calculation differ slightly?

Check the operation, units, signs and rounding first. Equivalent fractions or expressions can look different while representing the same value.
