In LibreOffice Calc, im trying to calculate the total of a column using =sum then dragging the area of the cells that I want to add up.
However, the total displayed is 0.02 less than when I add up the cells manually using a calculator.
How can I calculate the correct total?

Could be rounding errors. What format have you applied to each cell and to the cell where the total and the formula resides?0

Change the formatting to 8dp and see if shows a difference on numbers0

rounding on spreadsheets can be a constant source of frustration in these circumstances...always a trade-off between accuracy and having a sensible cell format to be readable. Best play about with dp as suggested above......Gettin' There, Wherever There is......
I have a dodgy "i" key, so ignore spelling errors due to "i" issues, ...I blame Apple0
