Calculator limitations

Wirelessly posted

So I did a quick search, and couldn't find anything. Has anyone noticed that the bone stock BB calculator doesn't go past 8 digits? I can't remember if standard calcs are 8 or 9 digits. I realized this when trying to calculate the US population (306 million) by 380,000. If your curious I can tell you why. Needless to say I couldn't make this calculation.



Has this always been the case?



Do I have any options?



Thanks in advance.

You get the same answer if you divide both numbers by 1,000. Basically take three zeros off the end of each number.

306,000,000 / 380,000 = 306,000 / 380
