## Optimize SVG Precision

Reduce SVG coordinate precision to decrease file size. The optimal precision depends on the viewBox size, but in general reducing precision should be considered.

**Incorrect (excessive precision):**

```svg
<path d="M 10.293847 20.847362 L 30.938472 40.192837" />
```

**Correct (1 decimal place):**

```svg
<path d="M 10.3 20.8 L 30.9 40.2" />
```

**Automate with SVGO:**

```bash
npx svgo --precision=1 --multipass icon.svg
```
