Indeed, that's a very comprehensible explanation. Sorry for being sloppy sometimes but please never hesitate to ask if something is unclear.

Best regards

PS: Maybe it's worth noting that \(15743\times 0.bbbbb+0.52261\times aaaaa\) will use at most 11 digits. Thus we're fine with the 12 digits of the HP-35S or HP-42S and don't need to FP each of the products before adding them. This could lead to problems when using a calculator that provides only 10 digits as the HP-15C for example.
