How do you type a division sign?

[Eukaryote]

That and how do you type a multiplication sign. In the meantime I can use an X for division but I still need to know how to type both signs.

try typing in 246 while holding the alt key

*make sure num lock is on.

Thanks but it doesn't work.

Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Character Map. You can then browse through the characters and copy them to the clipboard.

Alt + 246 works for me.

Works for me too. Holding down the left alt key, pressing 2-4-6 on the keypad, and releasing left-alt.

Odd... on this computer (running WinCE2.11), it's Alt+247, rather than 246.

Usually on the net "/" is used for division ( 10 / 2 = 5) and "*" for multiplication (2 * 2 = 4).

The multiplication dot though is Alt-0183 (you have to include the zero).

I remember making an ASCII chart of alt-keypad sequences and the ASCII symbol it displayed once...

Copy and paste it.

Or you could type it out in fraction form... if you have the time

[u]1[/u]
X

Seems it would be easier to learn TeX...

\frac{1}{x}

... but then again, I'm weird.

Isn't much help unless the forum involved supports it.
