1. The sum or difference of two values is as precise as the least precise value. (Physics - Principles and Problems, by Murphy, Hollon, Zitzewitz, and Smoot, page 17) https://www.abebooks.com/servlet/BookDetailsPL?bi=22571800582
2. The sum or difference of two values is as precise as the less precise value. (my own sentence)

Is #2 also grammatically correct?
