Percent Calculations

Inputting a value and pressing 1((%) causes the input value to become

a percent.

150 × 20% = 30 150 * 20 1((%) = 30

Calculate what percentage of 880 is 660. (75%)

660 / 880 1((%) =

Increase 2500 by 15%. (2875)

2500 + 2500 * 15 1((%) =

2875

Discount 3500 by 25%. (2625)

3500 - 3500 * 25 1((%) =

2625

Degree, Minute, Second (Sexagesimal) Calculations

Performing an addition or subtraction operation between sexagesimal values,

or a multiplication or division operation between a sexagesimal value and a

decimal value will cause the result to be displayed as a sexagesimal value.

You also can convert between sexagesimal and decimal. The following

is the input format for a sexagesimal value: {degrees} $ {minutes} $

{seconds} $.

Note: You must always input something for the degrees and minutes, even

if they are zero.

2°20´30˝ + 39´30˝ = 3°00´00˝

2 $ 20 $ 30 $+ 0 $ 39 $ 30 $=

3°0´0˝

Convert 2°15´18˝ to its decimal equivalent.

2 $ 15 $ 18 $=

2°15´18˝

(Converts sexagesimal to decimal.) $ 2.255

(Converts decimal to sexagesimal.) $ 2°15´18˝

Multi-Statements

You can use the colon character (:) to connect two or more expressions and

execute them in sequence from left to right when you press =.

3 + 3 : 3 × 3 3 + 3 SW(:) 3 * 3 = 6
