rounding down using floor

so im using:
floor(10^decimal*(total/AVERAGE_COUNT))/10^decimal;
where:
decimal = 4, AVERAGE_COUNT = 9, total = 8.9289
this entry gives me 0.9920, however the answer should be 0.9921
furthermore, when I just do
total/AVERAGE_COUNT;
it gives me 0.9921 which is correct but i need to use the floor function for the rest of my data.
how do i get around this

Which MATLAB release are you using, and which operating system?
I get 0.9921 on R2020a on Mac
I'm on R2020a on Windows
On my R2018b, Win10 this script
%%
format long
decimal = 4; AVERAGE_COUNT = 9; total = 8.9289;
x = floor(10^decimal*(total/AVERAGE_COUNT))/10^decimal
outputs
x =
0.992100000000000

I'm on R2020a on Windows 10 and I also get 0.9921.
Is it possible that total does not equal exactly 8.9289? For example, if total actually equals 8.92889 (which would usually display as 8.9289 in the command window), then you'll end up with 0.9920.
