There is no reason to expect that taking three rational numbers A, B and 
C, such that A=B+C, converting to decimal and rounding to two decimal 
places, will never result in imbalance.

The simplest example I can come up with is 9/7, 5/7 and 4/7 where
 9/7 = 1.285714... -> 1.29
 5/7 = 0.714285... -> 0.71
 4/7 = 0.571428... -> 0.57
with imbalance 0.01
