Part 2 > Q128 :
R
esult value of formula using ‘%’ in Calculator
Q : The Calculator feature of my Galaxy S4 shows the result value of a formula using ‘%’ differently to my Galaxy S3.
Is my device faulty?
A :
Your device is not faulty.
For the Galaxy S4, the concept of
‘%’ in the Calculator feature was changed for usability because most users use ‘%’
for the calculation of interest rates.
If you enter '%' in the previous formula including the number, It will be calculated as a '%' of the previous number.
ex :
10
% = 0.1
10
+10% = 11 (‘%’ is applied to
blue marked 10,
so the result value 11 is calculated by
10+10*0.1)
(10+10)
+10% = 22 (‘%’ is applied to
blue marked 20,
so 10% is
20*0.1
)
10+
(10+10)
+10% = 32 (‘%’ is applied to
blue marked 20,
so 10% is
20*0.1
)

Note :
- Parenthesis should be closed automatically when user does not close parenthesis.
-
% is the same with “
÷
100”
