It depends.

Bought any resistors or capacitors lately? Resistors are commonly sold with
nominal values +/- 20%; capacitors, with +100/-50%. +/-15% may not be high
precision, but it's better than common precision :-) .

And anyway, 35 isn't a whole 15% less than 40, it's only 12.5% less, if
we're going to try for highest arithmetic precision here :-) . No big deal.
