Bill:
> You said 27.27%, Alex posted 27.277. Is his added digit meaningful?

I took the value given in Encyclopedia Britannica, 1960
and rounded to as many digits as needed to be sure that
the formula is sufficiently precise.

> How "approximate" is "approximate?"

In my message "approximate" means
"the digit of 1/10's of a minute is
correct". That is the error less than 0.05'
