Question for someone who knows math and the XP calculator.

[SPL Tech]

I need to know how to enter the following into the Windows XP home calculator:

1.724^-10

How do I do it?

That is 1.724 to the negative 10th power.

 

[KBlair]

1.) Type "1.724".
2.) Type "^" (That's Shift+6).
3.) Type "10".
4.) Press "+/-".
5.) Press "=" and you're done.

Beat me to it. Meh.

 

[Nitestick]

go into the options and change it to scientific mode. you'll have a lot more options available then

.0000000001724 is the answer.

when doing powers, simply slide the decimal to the right/left accordingly. you can do it in your head.

1.724E-10

When I follow KBlair's directions, I get -944.

Something has to be wrong here.

Only works if you have number*10^power.

I get about .0043
