NORM displays results with digits to the left and right of the decimal, as in 123456.78. SCI expresses numbers with one digit to the left of the decimal and the appropriate power of 10, as in 1.2345678105 (which is the same as 123456.78).
Note: In some restricted environments (for example function table, data editor, and the %h menu), the TI-30XS MultiView calculator may display E instead of 10n. ENG displays results as a number from 1 to 999 times 10 to an integer power. The integer power is always a multiple of 3. Note: C is a shortcut key to enter a number in scientific notation format. The result displays in the numeric notation format set in mode. FLOAT 0123456789 Sets the decimal notation mode. FLOAT (floating decimal point) displays up to 10 digits, plus the sign and decimal. 0123456789 (fixed decimal point) specifies the number of digits (0 through 9) to display to the right of the decimal.

J %f %{ 2 % or && -

Fractions

q %N %j %O In the MathPrint mode, fractions with q can include operation keys (T, V, etc.) and most function keys (F, %_, etc.). In Classic mode, fractions with q do not allow operation keys, functions, or complex fractions in the numerator or denominator. Note: In Classic mode, data editor, and table, use W to perform complex division problems. Calculations using fractions can display fraction or decimal results, depending on input.
The TI-30XS MultiView calculator defaults output to improper fractions. Results are automatically simplified. q enters a simple fraction. Pressing q before or after a number can result in different behavior. Entering a number before pressing q makes that number the numerator. To enter fractions with operators or radicals, press q 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 q between the entry of the numerator and the denominator. %N enters a mixed number. Press %N between the entry of the unit and the numerator. % O converts between mixed numbers and simple fraction form. % j converts results between fractions and decimals.
