roundings
Decimal place truncations
Roundings are the results of rounding numbers—adjusting figures to a specified degree of precision.
In accounting and statistics, small roundings can accumulate: The discrepancy was due to roundings in the quarterly reports.
The term appears most often in technical contexts where precision matters and approximations must be tracked or explained.
