Final acceptance is a source-bound conjunction of independent gates. Exact arithmetic here means exact results for the stated model inputs; measured inputs still carry uncertainty and significant-figure limits.

highlighted = computed this step

All three source gates pass in the first row

Control pass bit 1, replicate pass bit 1, and calibration range bit 1 give final acceptance 1.

A failed control blocks an otherwise valid row

The second row has control pass bit 0 while replicate and calibration bits are 1 and 1. Final acceptance is 0.

A failed replicate gate also blocks the row

The third row restores control pass bit 1 but replicate pass bit is 0. Final acceptance is 0.
