Frequently Asked Questions
What operations can I perform with a basic calculator?
A basic calculator allows you to perform the four fundamental arithmetic operations: addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication (×), and division (÷). It may also include features for calculating percentages, square roots, and working with memory functions.
How do I use the memory functions on a calculator?
Most basic calculators include memory functions: M+ adds the displayed number to memory, M- subtracts it from memory, MR recalls (displays) the value stored in memory, and MC clears the memory. These functions help you store intermediate results during complex calculations.
What is the order of operations in calculations?
The standard order of operations, often remembered by the acronym PEMDAS, is: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), and Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). This ensures consistent and correct calculation results.
