Selecting the floating point number system in scientific notation The calculator has two settings for displaying a floating point number: FLO_A (FLOAT A) and FLO_B (FLOAT B). In each display setting, a number is automatically displayed in scientific notation outside the following preset ranges: • FLO_A ~ 0 2: 0.000000001 ≤ | X | ≤ 9,999,999,999 • FLO_B ~ 0 3: 0.01 ≤ | X | ≤ 9,999,999,999 Switching the notation setting Procedure 100000 ÷ 3 = Fixed decimal point with two decimal places → Scientific notation (SCI) with two significant digits → Floating point (FLO_A) Key operation s 100000 8 3 = ~ 0 1 2 ~ 0 2 3 ÷ 1000 = Floating point (FLO_A) → Floating point (FLO_B) s 3 8 1000 = ~ 0 3 → Fixed decimal point with two decimal places ~ 0 0 2 Display 1-----©3= 3333333 1-----©3= 33 04 1-----©3= 3333333333 3©1---= 0003 3©1---= 3-03 3©1---= 000 Selecting the angular unit (see page 61) • DEG (°) : ~ 1 0 (default setting) • RAD (rad) : ~ 1 1 • GRAD (g) : ~ 1 2 Selecting the depreciation method (see page 48) • SL (Straight-line method): ~ 2 0 (default setting) • SYD (Sum-of-the-years' digits method): ~ 2 1 • DB (Declining balance method): ~ 2 2 9

Selecting the floating point number system in scien-
tific notation
The calculator has two settings for displaying a floating point
number:
FLO_A (FLOAT A) and FLO_B (FLOAT B). In each display set-
ting, a number is automatically displayed in scientific notation
outside the following preset ranges:
• FLO_A
~
