What determines how precise a measurement is
It is precise if it is repeatable.
The measurement 25.81 is precise to the nearest hundredth.
Significant digits in measurement refer to the digits in a number that carry meaning or contribute to the precision of the measurement. They indicate the level of certainty in a measurement and help determine the accuracy of the result. The more significant digits in a measurement, the more precise the measurement is considered to be.
No. Accurate relates to how close the actual measurement the instrument measures. Precise relates to how much detail the instrument gives when measuring. They are independent to each other: An measurement can be precise and accurate (eg the value of π is 3.141592654) An measurement can be precise and inaccurate (eg the value of π is 1.733677432) An measurement can be less precise and accurate (eg the value of π is 3.14) An measurement can be less precise and inaccurate (eg the value of π is 1.73).

An automatically measurement has a higher precision than a manually measurement.
19.2cm is more precise
The precision of a measurement can be determined by looking at the number of decimal places in the measurement. The more decimal places, the more precise the measurement. Additionally, if a measuring tool is capable of measuring smaller increments, it can provide a more precise measurement.
