    By default, the output value is rounded to adjust its precision to match that of the input. An input such as 1234 is interpreted as 1234 ± 0.5, while 1200 is interpreted as 1200 ± 50, and the output value is displayed accordingly, taking into account the scale factor used in the conversion.

  4. Percentage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage

    To calculate a percentage of a percentage, convert both percentages to fractions of 100, or to decimals, and multiply them. For example, 50% of 40% is: ⁠ 50 / 100 ⁠ × ⁠ 40 / 100 ⁠ = 0.50 × 0.40 = 0.20 = ⁠ 20 / 100 ⁠ = 20%. It is not correct to divide by 100 and use the percent sign at the same time; it would literally imply ...

[1] The units were standardized in square metres when Thailand (then Siam) adopted the metric system in 1923, [ 2 ] [ 3 ] although the Royal Survey Department was already reported in 1908 to be using the metre-based conversion for ...

    For example, rounding x = 2.1784 dollars to whole cents (i.e., to a multiple of 0.01) entails computing 2.1784 / 0.01 = 217.84, then rounding that to 218, and finally computing 218 × 0.01 = 2.18. When rounding to a predetermined number of significant digits , the increment m depends on the magnitude of the number to be rounded (or of the ...

  9. Preferred number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preferred_number

    Standard metric paper sizes use the square root of two (√ 2) as factors between neighbouring dimensions rounded to the nearest mm (Lichtenberg series, ISO 216). An A4 sheet for example has an aspect ratio very close to √ 2 and an area very close to 1/16 square metre. An A5 is almost exactly half an A4, and has the same aspect ratio.
