Do you have a better rounding algorithm that will fix this?

Are you aware there’s a standard “round” command in Standard Additions? Try this instead of doing your own rounding:

property form_height : ((1.75 - 0.7) * 72) --=75.6

to findRound of num given numDecimals:n
set x to 10 ^ n
return (round (num * x)) / x
end findRound

set rounded_height to findRound of form_height given numDecimals:2
