The screen of the calculator has M D SCI and all calculations show answers with one decimal place x10 to 02 power
SOURCE: calculator won't show decimal places
Haven't heard of it giving nearest whole numbers before. But have you tried pressing SHIFT and then SETUP (upper right hand corner next to ON button) and then pressing 2 (LineIO)? Or perhaps you're in different MODE?

Hello,
Since you bent on deactivating the very features that make your calculator so versatile and so powerful, here it is.
Press [SHIFT][MODE][2:LineIO] and you will see no more fractions, nor radicals etc. You asked for it.
Hope it helps.
Testimonial: "I bought the calculator because it was on sale and I like Casio calculators; not for its fractional abilities. I can easily switch it back now. Thanks"

The calculator has two Input/Output modes, MthIO and LineIO. In MthIO the results are displayed as fractions or as radicals or a mixture of fractions and radicals. What it means, is that in MthIO the calculator does exact calculations. Radicals in denominators are gotten rid of by rationalization, fractions are reduced to the same denominators before addition or subtraction. Fractions are reduced to simplest form.
In LineIO all results are displayed as decimal numbers.
If a result is exact (fractions and radicals) it can be changed to decimal form by pressing the S To D key, the one above the DEL key.
MthIO is the default IO mode. To set it, press SHIFT MODE and select 1:MthIO. To set LineIO as the IO mode, press SHIFT MODE and select 2:LineIO

You can configure it as you wish. Press [SHIFT][MODE] to access the (SETUP) configuration screen, then select [8:Norm].
You will be prompted to choose Norm1 or Norm2. To help you find out which is more appropriate to meet your concerns, I am inserting a screen capture from the manual.
To convert a single answer from symbolic to decimal, press the S--D key (just above the DEL key). To have all answers come out in decimal format, press SHIFT MODE 2 to switch to the LineIO mode.
