By default, the template recognizes both text and numbers. That is, typing {{ | By default, the template recognizes both text and numbers. That is, typing {{mxt|<nowiki>3.14{{x10^|-12}}</nowiki>}} will produce {{mxt|3.14{{x10^|-12}}}}, with the proper [[minus sign]] ("{{mxt|−}}"), rather than with a [[hyphen]] ("{{mxt|-}}"). However, typing {{mxt|<nowiki>A{{x10^|-BC}}</nowiki>}} will produce {{mxt|A{{x10^|-BC}}}} since {{mxt|BC}} is not a number. In those cases, you need to write {{mxt|<nowiki>A{{x10^|&minus;BC}}</nowiki>}} to produce the correct {{mxt|A{{x10^|−BC}}}}. | ||

This can also be used as an alternative to explicitly display the plus sign ({{mxt|<nowiki>1.2{{x10^|+4|text}}</nowiki>}} gives {{mxt|1.2{{x10^|+4|text}}}}), but remember that you also lose delimitation if you do it this way. | ||
