First of all my assumption is that your precision is set to 8 (8 digits after the decimal point). I don't know what you're doing and to tell you the truth I don't know how to change it because I have never used Oracle. But I can tell you this.
All the calculations that you have shown are correct. You get different results because 1.2345 is being divided by 3 different numbers and that's what the precision shows you.
1.1111 is a different number from 1.111111
The last division
1.2345/1.11111111 = 1.1110500011110500011110500011111 and if you truncate it you get 1.11105000 (the precision is 8). You know that the last zeros are irrelevant so your answer is 1.11105.
Of course it depends on your application how accurate you want to be.
