X-1

On a Casio calculator you can obtain the reciprocal of a number

X-1

 


Example 1

To calculate the reciprocal of 2 as 2−1 = 0.5

2-1                 
0.5   
 2  X-1 =

or with a negative exponent as 2−1 = 0.5

2xy-1               
0.5   
 2  Xy (−)  1  =

or as the division 1 ÷ 2 = 0.5

1÷2                
0.5   
 1  ÷  2  =

or as the fraction 1 / 2 = 0.5

12                 
12.   
12                
0.5   
 1  a b/c  2  = a b/c

 


Example 2

To calculate  = 0.707107

√2-1               
0.707106781   
   2  X-1 =

but you can also enter this as

√2xy−1             
0.707106781   
 2  Xy  1  =

and because  also as

1÷√2               
0.707106781   
 1  ÷  2  =

 


Example 3

To enter 0−1

Ma  ERROR 
 
 0  X-1 = AC/ON

Dividing by zero always produces a message.
