Actual exam question for Esri's EAPA_2025 exam
Question #: 44
Topic #: 3
A GIS specialist is adding fields to an existing table using the Add Field geoprocessing tool to conduct analysis. The type of analysis requires numeric data that stores information to 4 decimal points.
Which field type and associated precision and scale meets these requirements?

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

Double field type supports high-precision floating-point numbers suitable for storing data with multiple decimal places. Precision controls the total number of digits; scale controls the number of digits to the right of the decimal.
* Float has lower precision and is not recommended for accurate decimal storage.
* Long is an integer type and cannot store decimals.
* Double with Precision 3 and Scale 4 allows storing up to 4 decimal places as required.
Therefore, the correct answer is B.
