Title:
  Scientific Notation not given proper order of operations

Status in GNOME Calculator:
  New
Status in gnome-calculator package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  gnome-calculator 3.8.1 (3.8.1-0ubuntu1) on Ubuntu 13.04 x86_64:

  In Advanced mode, enter:

   8×10¹²÷6×10⁹

  (keystrokes: [8] [×10^y]  [1] [2] [/] [6] [×10^y] [9])

  Result:

   1.333333333×10²¹

  Correct answer:

   1333.33333333333

  (so gnome-calculator is off by 18 orders of magnitude. The ‘×10^y’
  steps should be carried out first, according to operator precedence
  for exponentiation.)
