Why Do Results Sometimes Differ by a Tiny Fraction?

We use the standard conversion factor 1 km ≈ 0.621371 mi rounded to six decimal places. When you multiply and then round the final answer (for example, to one or two decimal places), you may see a difference on the order of 0.0001 mi — that’s less than two inches! Those tiny “discrepancies” are simply normal rounding artifacts and do not affect the practical accuracy of the conversion.
