    Hi All,

    When trying to divide ie. 1/2500 on my calculator, instead of 0.0004 I have something like
    4×10-5(to the power of -5). What do I have to do in order to get 0.0004?

    Thanks

    Thank you – i managed to get the info from those pages.

    For anyone else who has the same problem – press SHIFT : MODE(setup) : 2 (Line10)

    Its the math10 that leaves the answers in fractions :0)

    and

    Shift > Mode/Setup > 1 > 2.
    This will output decimal as opposed to fractions
    To work it the other way round
    Shift > Mode/Setup > 1 > 1.

    I also had the same issue with my calculator.

    This helped me:

    Shift, Mode, LineIO (2), then
    Shift, Mode, Norm (8), 2.
