Chain Calculations
When you are solving a problem such as:
(3 x 5) / (3 + 4)
You proceed from inside the parentheses and work your way
out left to right. Intermediate results are displayed and kept as
you go. For the above problem, proceed as follows:
3
ENTER
5
, then press
×
- result
15.00
3
ENTER
4
, then press
+
- result
7.00
Finally, press
÷
- final result
2.14
As you can see, each sub-result is “stacked” when you begin
a new “
n
ENTER
n
” calculation. You can go as deep as four
levels. If you need to, you can always save intermediate
results in a register for later recall.
