Examples of Fraction Displays, 6Fractions | HP 33s Scientific

To select a fraction format, you must change the states of two flags. Each flag can be "set" or "clear," and in one case the state of flag 9 doesn't matter.

To Get This Fraction Format:	Change These Flags:
	8	9

Most precise	Clear	—
Factors of denominator	Set	Clear
Fixed denominator	Set	Set

You can change flags 8 and 9 to set the fraction format using the steps listed here. (Because flags are especially useful in programs, their use is covered in detail in chapter 13.)

1.Press yto get the flag menu.

2.To set a flag, press { } and type the flag number, such as 8. To clear a flag, press {) and type the flag number.

To see if a flag is set, press { @} and type the flag number. Press or b to clear the & or response.

Examples of Fraction Displays

The following table shows how the number 2.77 is displayed in the three fraction formats for two /c values.
