Although you see only two decimal places, all calculations in your hp 12c
platinum are performed with full 10-digit numbers.
When only two decimal places are displayed, numbers are rounded to two
decimal places: if the third digit is 5 through 9, the second digit is increased by
one; if the third digit is 0 through 4, the second digit is not affected. Rounding
occurs regardless of how many decimal places are displayed.
