Dimensioning Precision

I'm sure this is becoming more of a CAD lessons thread than simply an LC instructional but I appreciate your patience.  The construction circles technique has come in way useful, even in my simple project.

So, now I have made a drawing and want to put dimensions on it.  And I understand the dimensions command (I think).  But although I have drawn my rectangle using the rectangle command line and it should be 38.0 inches wide, when I use the dimensions menu and the mouse I typically get something like 37.8418.  Even if I am using snap on entity.

Is there  a way to limit the presented precision of the measurements.  Or to force a number?
