Why voltmeters are showing different values?

I think due a different calculus precision used, starting potentiometer from a % of position applied on a total resistance.

As giomix says, it is in the percentages, do the math 50.5 percent of 9.9 equals 4.9995 kΩ , not a bug would do the same in real life if exact measure did in fact exist

Unfair comparison, real world values would never achieve such figures purely due to component tolerances if nothing else, real world the length between node connections would also affect the figure - this is purely a function of the simulation itself and not physically possible in my opinion

@schmooster its just to understand the simulation environment http://everycircuit.com/circuit/5944205889765376
