EDIT:

My previous post was incorrect. I didn't see the division sign.

TI-89 Calculator = 76.212
TI-30X Calculator = 760.2118227
Windows Calculator = 760.21182266009852216748768472906
(The difference between these answers is the total number of digits that each is able to crunch. As you see, the calculator under Windows is more accurate than my $150 TI-89 graphing calculator.
Funny thing, my $10 TI-30X is more accurate too!)


You can do this on nearly any computer by going to:
Start > Programs > Accessories > Calculator
When the calculator program comes up, select:
View > Scientific

Good luck in your class.

Note to Gordo J.
I see my mistake. I raised the 6.09 to the 24th power, not the 23rd.
I've posted the image from my calculator to the web:

Thanks for the tip there Gordo!

This is scientic notation :

3.9E24 X 118.71 = 4.662969E26

4.662969E26 / 6.09E23 = 760.212

Note to Mitch:
I am using the TI-89, but used the EE key. Different answer? Don't know why.
