Example Input and Calculations Using Engineering Symbols


Example 1: To input 500k

(Engineer Symbol: On)

  • 500 – [Engineer Symbol] > [Kilo]

Example 2: To calculate 999k (kilo) + 25k (kilo) = 1.024M (Mega) = 1024k (kilo) = 1024000

(Engineer Symbol: On)

  • 999 – [Engineer Symbol] > [Kilo]
    25 – [Engineer Symbol] > [Kilo]
  • – [ENG Notation]
