Describe the current content
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

FScott: In my browsing through the CLL to try to understand various matters lojbanical, I stumbled at example 18.113 (page 435) (& in the UnCLL v1.2.15 (page 429).  The example's final line is: 
    30,000,000 = 3 × 10 ^ 8
So far as I understand simple arithmetic & the structure's intention, the '3' in its penultimate line:
    the-number (RP!) 8, (3, 10, null-op),  exponential-notation.
is not intended to be read as '0.3'.

Proposed content

If that understanding is correct, then said final line is missing a '0'.  It should be:
    300,000,000 = 3 × 10 ^ 8
& the 2nd line of the example should be:
    The-number 300-comma-comma equals

Alternatively, all lines would be correct if all instances of '8' were replaced with '7'.
