How much precision do you need?
Each row is the same answer cut at a different number of decimals, with what that choice costs you. Pick the shortest row whose error is smaller than whatever you are measuring with.

|---|---|---|
| Whole number | 800 | exact |
| 1 decimal | 800.0 | exact |
| 2 decimals | 800.00 | exact |
Round trip: take 800.0 cm back the other way and you land on 8.0000 m — a drift of 0.0000 m. That gap is the rounding, not the conversion.
