Numbers on reports and the user interface are formatted in almost all cases to display five of significant figures (before or after the decimal place). This works well for numbers in the range of 0.0001 to 10,0000.
Very Small Numbers
For numbers less than 1 there can be up to three leading zeros after the decimal. For tiny numbers, where the number of leading zeros after the decimal would be four or more, MEC uses scientific notation. For example, the Unit Converter tool would give the following values as unit conversions for 1 cubic centimeter.
