Tutoring math, calculator features are always topical. The tutor mentions the ENG function on the Casio fx-991ES PLUS C.<\/h1>\n

Back in my Halloween, 2015<\/a> post, I explain the general idea of the ENG function – that engineers and technicians often like to refer to measurements in “thousand” groupings. For instance, 1249W is 1.249kW; 0.067A is 67mA.<\/p>\n

Example: convert 0.78A to mA<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Key 0.78 = (you must press = for this to work)<\/li>\n
  2. Press ENG: hopefully you see 780×10-3<\/sup><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Example: convert 1249W to kW.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Solution: to go up to the bigger unit, use SHIFT ENG, like so:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Key 1249 = (once again, you must press =)<\/li>\n
    2. Press SHIFT then ENG. Hopefully you see 1.249×103<\/sup><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      HTH:)<\/p>\n
