On output, with D, and E descriptors, and with G descriptors if the E editing is required, the internal item gets its basic real constant part multiplied by 10k, and the exponent is reduced by k before it is written out.

On output with the F descriptor and with G descriptors, if the F editing is sufficient, the internal item gets its basic real constant part multiplied by 10k before it is written out.
