[Gimp-user] Question re. tool slider settings

[Jeffery Small]

This is just a general question regarding the values from the various tool
sliders.  As an example, when I drag the Threshold slider for the Fuzzy
Select tool, I get the following values: 0.0, 4.8, 9.6, 14.4, 19.2, 24.1,
28.9, etc.  Similar odd sequences of numbers appear for other tool options
such as Feather Edges and so on.  I'm just curious why these particular
numbers appear rather than some whole number divisions such as 5, 10, 15,
20, etc.

Regards,
