There's three ways to do this:
1. Change the mode to approximate. You will always get a numeric answer.
2. If you are under "auto", you can put a decimal point after a number. ie if you type 6*(pi) you will get 6(pi), if you type 6.*(pi) you will get 19.84...
3. Under any mode setting, press [Diamond]+[Enter] will always return an approximate answer. |

Like baseballdude_ said, I find it easiest to press the green diamond then hit enter. _________________ "Expect my questions to be basic and stupid, I'm only in high school algebra 2 and I am bad at math " |
