The "decimal" data type of the C# and Python programming languages, and the decimal formats of the IEEE 754-2008 standard, are designed to avoid the problems of binary floating-point representations when applied to human-entered exact decimal values, and make the arithmetic always behave as expected when numbers are printed in decimal.
Approximating a decimal integer by an integer with more trailing zeros 23217: 23200: 3 significant figures Approximating a large decimal integer using scientific notation: 300999999: 3.01 × 10 8: 3 significant figures Approximating a value by a multiple of a specified amount 48.2 45 Multiple of 15
Placing the CPU into BCD mode with the SED (set D flag) instruction results in decimal arithmetic, in which $99 + $01 would result in $00 and the carry (C) flag being set. In binary mode ( CLD , clear D flag), the same operation would result in $9A and the carry flag being cleared.
From 1979 to 2007 the average federal income tax rate fell 110% for the second lowest quintile, 56% for the middle quintile, 39% for the fourth quintile, 8% for the highest quintile, and 15% for the top 1%, with the bottom quintile moving from a tax rate of zero to negative liability.
According to World Bank, "Poverty headcount ratio at a defined value a day is the percentage of the population living on less than that value a day at 2017 purchasing power adjusted prices. As a result of revisions in PPP exchange rates, poverty rates for individual countries cannot be compared with poverty rates reported in earlier editions."
One bitcoin is divisible to eight decimal places. [ 7 ] : ch. 5 Units for smaller amounts of bitcoin are the millibitcoin (mBTC), equal to 1 ⁄ 1000 bitcoin, and the satoshi [ a ] (sat), representing 1 ⁄ 100 000 000 (one hundred millionth) bitcoin, the smallest amount possible.

Many new nuclear plants will be constructed, mainly to replace old ones. The nuclear part of electricity generation will increase from 11 to 12%. The renewable part goes up much more, from 21 to 33%. The IEA warns that in order to restrict global warming to 2 °C, carbon dioxide emissions [22] must not exceed 1000 gigaton (Gt) from 2014. This ...
