Fractional calculation
With the function mode selector at the
position, fractional cal¬
culations can be performed .
The display capacity as a fraction, whether entry or result, is limited
to max. 3 digits for each integer, numerator or denominator part and
at the same time to a max. 6 digits in the sum of each part.
When an answer exceeds the above capacity, it is automatically con¬
verted to the decimal scale.
* During fractional calculations, if the independent memory keys
(CD,
QB) is depressed, overflow occurs.
*The decimal mode selector is also not effective in fractional calcula¬
tions.
