OpenStudy (anonymous):

that would be -6.5 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so would it be -6-(1/2)?

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

it sees the negative associated with the 6 as an operator... same as when you input -3^2 you will get -9 as an answer

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

if you calculator has a fraction key... its easy ti input.

i guess my question is regarding to shortcuts. |dw:1346824704254:dw| 6 and a half. what we actually mean without the shortcuts is |dw:1346824730663:dw| But if we have |dw:1346824746385:dw| Do we mean -6 and a half as the shortcut? But |dw:1346824783677:dw|
