If your answer is correct, to the number of decimal places or significant figures requested, then you will not lose marks.

(Note that the phrases "premature rounding" and "a lot of decimal places" are somewhat contradictory.)

oh ok thank you :smile:

Cuz I thought premature reading inherently means rounding off before answers
and to be fair rounding off to a lot of decimal places before final answer... is still rounding off XDDD
