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.
| Rounded to | Answer (in) | Off by |
|---|---|---|
| Whole number | 72 | exact |
| 1 decimal | 72.0 | exact |
| 2 decimals | 72.00 | exact |
Round trip: take 72.00 in back the other way and you land on 2.0000 yd — a drift of 0.0000 yd. That gap is the rounding, not the conversion.
