    Have you checked other divisions that result in many decimal places? It looks to me like it's rounding to 2 decimal places (0.01 is the correct rounded answer). There might be a setting for that, or you might be using a monetary unit, where calculations default to 2 places.

    I would say that you have a setting that is rounding off to 2 decimal points

    It is rounding up the result to two decimal places. This happens on adding machines that round off to the nearest cent.

    90,000/14,000,000

    = 9/1,400

    = 0.0064...
