Operations

To multiply: multiply coefficients and add exponents. To divide: divide coefficients and subtract exponents. To add/subtract: equalize exponents first, then operate on coefficients.

Similar to scientific, but the exponent is always a multiple of 3, corresponding to SI prefixes like kilo (10³), mega (10⁶), milli (10⁻³), micro (10⁻⁶).
