Press SHIFT MODE 8 2 to select the Norm2 display mode, which will display in fixed decimal notation unless the magnitude of the number is larger than 10^10 or less than 10^-9

For more information about the display modes, please refer to your manual.

To convert a single value, press the S<>D key. To have all answers appear as decimals, press 2nd MODE 2 to select LineIO mode.

To get the result in decimal format, press [SHIFT][=] instead of just [=].
You can also configure your calculator to show only decimal results:

1. Press [SHIFT][MODE] to access the (SETUP)
2. Select [2:LineIO]

Here is what you do:

1) Press the Mode button.
2) Scroll down the list that appears until you find "Exact/Approx".
3) Change the setting for "Exact/Approx" to Exact.
4) Press enter to save the settings change.

You have three possible settings for "Exact/Approx":
1) Auto - The calculator will try to determine the best format.
2) Exact - The calculator will always give the answer in fraction form.
3) Approximate - The calculator will always give the answer in decimal form.

There are two options.

1) Whenever you want the answer in decimal form, place a decimal after at least one of the numbers.
For example: instead of using (1/2) use (1/2.)

2) Press the "Mode" button. Scroll down the list that appears until you find "Exact/Approx". If you set it to "Approximate", then it will always give the answer in decimal form. If you set it to "Exact", it will give the answer in fraction form.

before you press enter, press the green diamond key
