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 | 5 | −0.48640 |
| 1 decimal | 5.5 | +0.01360 |
| 2 decimals | 5.49 | +0.00360 |
Round trip: take 5.49 m back the other way and you land on 6.0039 yd — a drift of 0.0039 yd. That gap is the rounding, not the conversion.
