How can I get precise result?

I'm new to Matlab and I did some test.
format longG
a = [1 -1 -1 3; 2 -1 -3 1; 3 2 -5 2; 3 1 2 2]
b = adjoint(a)
a * b
The result looks like this:
As you can see, there are a lot .9999999... and e-14 or e-15. These e-14 or e-15 numbers are actually all 0s. How can I get precise result?
I did a similar calculation in Mathematica, and below is the result.
How can I get this similar result in Matlab? Thanks.

a * sym(b)

Thank you! This works. By the way, I have to use sym() from the first calculation in order to get what I want. Should I always use sym() in order to get precise result? Are there any guidelines?
Thanks again!
