PROBABILITY GENERAL QUESTION

HiHi,
I've heard that in probability you need the answer to be 4 decimal places or you will lose marks. Is this true or are teachers just being crazy? o_O

You should always give exact answers unless the question states to round off. This is for ALL areas of study.

HOWEVER, if your teachers tell you to round off to 4 in all probability stuff, you should do that in your SAC.
