Divide by distance component very unprecise

I divided an arc by length and used the first cut to generate a subCurve. Somewhere on this way the operation became very unprecise. (is: 51.6 mm, should be:50mm)

Rebuiding the arc to a curve won´t fix it.

Am I missing something?

Divide Length is the one that measures the curve length.
