Post your question in the Works newsgroup and make sure to include the
version of Works you are using.

Re: Microsoft works spreadsheet

It rounds up to two (2) decimals - try resetting to more decimals but in
currency mode will default to two decimals. Just try to divide 83.52 and
83.58 by 32 on a pocket calc and you will get same = 2.61.
