Each ten to play with strict accuracy (5)
I believe the answer is:
exact
'each ten to play with strict accuracy' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'each ten to play' is the wordplay.
'each' becomes 'e' (this might be a standard abbreviation which I don't know about).
'ten' becomes 'X' (Roman numeral).
'to play' becomes 'act' ('act' can be a synonym of 'play').
'e'+'x'+'act'='EXACT'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for exact that I've seen before include "Strict" , "Explicit" , "Not approximate, precise" , "Demand payment" , "Spot on, precise" .)
