  Positive. My statement was "that I tried". I tried several of each.

  But there is no fractional portion to throw away.

  72 / 2000 = .036, it does not equal .0359999999999999 like the examples
have implied. .036 * 750 is 27.0, again, not 26.99999999.

  I've seen lots of examples where different calculators come with
different values when faced with .9999999, but this number stops at just 3
decimal places. If there were any .3333s or .666666s in the calculation, I
could accept a rounding “issue”. But since there are no number to round, it
sure looks like a bug.
