So I need to do this? AA = Extended(8427+Extended(33/Extended(1440.0)));
Just typecasting 1440.0 to extended should be enough.
This is inconsistent, why didn't the 1440.1 version reduce to a single?
Because 1440.1 cannot be represented exactly as a single precision floating point number. Nor as a double or extended precision floating point number for that matter, and in that case the compiler uses the maximum precision is supported by the target platform.
