ENTERING DIMENSIONS

When entering dimensioned values, you must
enter the largest dimension first — feet before
inches, inches before fractions. You enter frac-
tions by entering the numerator (value above the
line) then the "/" (fraction bar) key and then the
denominator (value below the line).
Enter the following linear dimensions:
Dimension
5 Feet
1/2 Inch
5 Feet 1 Inch
5 Feet 1-1/2 in.
10 Yards
17.5 Meters
Note: Yards, Meters, Centimeters and Milli-
meters may only be entered as whole
Yards) or decimal values (5.5 Meters), and not
in combination with feet and inches or with
themselves (5 Meters, 2 CM, 8 MM). If a
particular problem contains such a dimension,
you must first convert the yards (or meters) to
"Feet-Inches"
the normal process. (See Conversion section.)
