decimal values are always decimal.
– Decimaal fraction conversion. Use the
operation shown below to convert calculation
results between decimal values and fraction
values. Note that conversion can take as long as
two seconds to perform.

Example 1:
You can use the display setup (Disp) screen to specify
the display format when a fraction calculation result
is greater than 1. To change the fraction display
format, press the
key a number of times until
you reach the setup screen shown below.

CALCULATIONS
You can perform sexagesimal calculations using
degrees (hours), minutes, and seconds, and convert
between sexagesimal and decimal values.
Example 1: To convert the decimal value 2.258 to a
sexagesimal value and then back to a decimal value.
Example 2: To perform the following calculation:
12° 34' 56" × 3.45 =
= d/c

MEMORY CALCULATIONS
Use the
key to enter the COMP mode when you
want to perform a calculation using memory.
COMP _______________
– Answer memory. Whenever you press
inputting values or an expression, the calculation
result automatically updates the answer memory
content by storing the result. In addition to
answer memory content is also updated with
results whenever you press
(%)
(M-) or
followed by a letter (A through F or M, X or Y). You
can recall answer memory content by pressing
. Answer memory can store up to 12 digits
for the mantissa and two digits for the exponent.
Answer memory content is not updated if the
operation performed by any of the above key
operations results in an error.
– Consecutive calculations. You can use the
calculation result which is currently on the display
(and also stored in answer memory) as the first
value of your next calculation. Note that pressing
an operator key while a result is displayed causes
