How to change form of numbers

Hello Community,

Can anyone tell me, make the numbers by the black arrows show 0 instead of 10^-37? I've tried changing all the setting for number formats, but it doesn't really help:

While in Mathcad 15 we have ways to tell the symbolic to show what you want, I don't know of a way to achieve that in Prime.

The problem seems to be the numeric solve block. If you evaluate c1 and c2 I guess you will see that they are not exactly 0 and 1 (show more decimals or evaluate those values symbolically).

I guess there are round off errors when using a numeric solve block even though the solutions should be exact 0 and 1. In Mathad 15 a workaround would be to evaluate the solve block symbolically but unfortunately thats not possible in Prime.

So what could you do.

1) use Round or round on c1 and c2 (c1:=round(c1,15) or something like that)

2) Try to find c1 and c2 using the symbolics "solve" command
