• P enters a simple fraction. Pressing P before or after a number can result in different behavior. Entering a number before pressing P makes that number the numerator. To enter fractions with operators or radicals, press P before you enter a number (in MathPrint™ mode only). • In MathPrint™ mode, press $ between the entry of the numerator and the denominator. • In Classic mode, press P between the entry of the numerator and the denominator. The fraction bar will appear thicker than the division bar. • Pressing % # from any MathPrint™ level, including the denominator or a lower limit, places the cursor in the history. Pressing enter will then paste the expression back to that MathPrint™ level. - To paste a previous entry in the denominator, place the cursor in the denominator, press % # to scroll to the desired entry, and then press < to paste the entry to the denominator. - To paste a previous entry in the numerator or unit, place the cursor in the numerator or unit, press # or % # to scroll to the desired entry, and then press < to paste the entry to the numerator or unit. • % @ enters a mixed number. Press the arrow keys to cycle through the unit, numerator, and denominator. • d 1 converts between simple fractions and mixednumber form (4n/d³´Un/d). • % ˜ converts results between fractions and decimals. Examples Classic mode n/d, Un/d 3P4 T1%@7 P 12 < n/d ³´Un/d 9 P 2 d 1 < 14

P
enters a simple fraction. Pressing
P
before or after a
number can result in different behavior. Entering a number
before pressing
P
makes that number the numerator.
To enter fractions with operators or radicals, press
P
before you enter a number (in MathPrint™ mode only).
In MathPrint™ mode, press
$
between the entry of the
numerator and the denominator.
In Classic mode, press
P
between the entry of the
numerator and the denominator. The fraction bar will
appear thicker than the division bar.
Pressing
%
#
from any MathPrint™ level, including the
denominator or a lower limit, places the cursor in the
history. Pressing enter will then paste the expression back
to that MathPrint™ level.
– To paste a previous entry in the denominator, place the
cursor in the denominator, press
% #
to scroll to the
desired entry, and then press
<
to paste the entry to
the denominator.
– To paste a previous entry in the numerator or unit, place
the cursor in the numerator or unit, press
#
or
%#
to scroll to the desired entry, and then press
<
to
paste the entry to the numerator or unit.
%
@
enters a mixed number. Press the arrow keys to
cycle through the unit, numerator, and denominator.
