1.564 - 0.38 = 1.184 The "correct" precision depends on the calibration of your measuring device. Since we don't know that, here are the possible choices: To the nearest whole number: 1 To the nearest tenth: 1.2 To the nearest hundredth: 1.18 To the nearest thousandth: 1.184
In mathematics, the word precision is used to describe the total number of digits (the number of significant figures) used in a number to approximate another number. For example, given a number 145.37823 the number 145 approximates the previous number with a precision of 3, and 145.3782 approximates it with a precision of 7. In other words, in maths, at least arithmetically speaking, precision is just another word for significant figures. In statistics, precision is usually a measurement of how well a measurement system gives consistent results, and is the reciprocal of variance.
Always the last number, so in this example the precision is to hundredths.

A Precision Number is the number of digits in a number.
The number of digits in a number is known as precision of a number. Depending on the precision required, the number is quantized to give the final number.
If you are referring to normalization of floating point numbers, it is to maintain the most precision of the number possible. Leading zeros in floating point representation is lost precision, thus normalization removes the leading zeros by shifting left and adjusting the exponent. If the calculation was done in a hidden extended precision register (like IEEE 80-bit format) extra precision bits may be shifted in to the LSBs before restoring the result to a standard single or double precision register, reducing loss of precision.
It has no precision, since there is no following number.
precision is the total number of bits or digits in the representation of a number.accuracy is the number of correct bits or digits in a number.Given a certain representation on a computer, all numbers stored in that representation will have the same precision; however the accuracy of different numbers will vary, depending on the source and on the calculations done on them.
Accuracy means how close you are to the target.(percentage error from target) Precision means how close you can determine what the target is;how many digits of your answer are reliably correct.(ability to measure in miles, feet, or inches). Full precision means the particular number you have has all or more than all of its digits correct needed to complete the calculation you are working on.

The precision is determined by the POSITION of the number 6 - NOT its value.
