I'm trying to get the value of 3072*0.114166238877481 and I'm getting different result from different methods.

I tried with Nodejs= 3072*0.114166238877481 returns 350.7186858316216
PHP gives up 350.7186858316216 after precision=17 in php.ini.
If i increase any more then it spits out a totally different value like 350.718685831621599.
From my Windows 10 (or Ubuntu 16.04 and Centos 6) built in calculator (standard mode) I get the same result.
Also tried some online java compilers which also gives the same result

However, with Windows 10 built in calculator(Scientific mode) I get 350.718685831621632 which is the expected result. How do I get the expected value from Nodejs or with PHP

See the [BCMath](http://php.net/manual/en/book.bc.php) extension. – Alex Howansky Mar 15 '18 at 14:57
Used BCMath but the result was 350.7186858316216135 again not matching with expected result. – muttalebm Mar 15 '18 at 15:47
