Accuracy, privacy and assumptions

• Convematik uses deterministic conversion factors from the local conversion engine and keeps full precision internally.
• Displayed values are rounded for readability, so copy the API response when you need machine-readable precision.

Common mistakes to avoid

Most wrong answers from a Percentage Calculator come from unit direction, rounding too early, or copying a result without its original context.

• Do not copy a simplified answer without checking whether the original problem wanted a fraction, decimal or percent.
• For classroom work, keep the intermediate rule visible so the answer is explainable.
• For financial or health decisions, use the specialized calculator when context matters.
