MATHEMATICAL OPERATIONS

Your calculator uses standard chaining logic which simply means that you enter your first value, then the operator (+, –, x, ÷), then the second value and then finally, the Equals sign to get your answer.

This feature also makes the calculator so simple to use for dimension applications. This is illustrated in the following examples:

Adding Dimensions

Add 7 feet 3-1/2 inches to 11 feet 4 inches:

7 [Feet] 3 [Inch] 1[/] 2

[+] 11 [Feet] 4 [Inch]

[=] 18 FT 7-1/2 IN

Add 11 inches to 2 feet 1 inches:

11 [Inch]

[+] 2 [Feet] 1 [Inch]

[=] 36 IN

Add 2 feet 1 inches to 11 inches:

2 [Feet] 1 [Inch]

[+] 11 [Inch]

[=] 3 FT 0 IN*

* The format of the first value you enter determines the format of the answer. However, with the [Conv] key you can change to any format you desire, provided that you maintain convention.
