How to show results of a division in decimal instead of fractions?

[starmensxed]

I have a casio fx-85GT X calculator.

when I try to divide numbers that won't come out as an integer, it shows the results as a fraction, instead of showing it in decimal numbers.

For example:

 

3 : 4 = 0.75

But when I try to do something like that on my calculator, it comes out as a fraction, and shows 3/4.

 

6 : 4 = 1.5

That should come out as a decimal, but the outcome on my calculator is a fraction(3/2).

 

What settings should I change to make the outcome show up as a decimal number, instead of a fraction? Thanks a lot.

You might get help here but just know this forum is focused on Casio's musical instruments (hence the name "Casio Music Forums") and not their other products such as calculators, watches, translators, etc. There are people here who are fans of all things Casio so maybe you'll get lucky.

I blame the Casio VL-1 and ML series of calculators for mixing music making with calculators!

I know this is an old post, but the answer is in the manual.  Read the section titled Calculation Modes and Calculator Setup.  If you no longer have the manual you can find it here:  fx-83GT X_fx-85GT X (casio.co.uk)
