The numbers you enter are the figures to be computed. The operators are symbols (such as + for addition) that are used to request a particular type of calculation. An operation refers to the combination of an operator with numbers. For example, 100 + 200 is an operation. A simple calculation consists of only one operation. However, a calculation can consist of as many operations as you need. For example, you may need to know the result of 100 + 200 X 5. This calculation consists of more than one operation (multiplication and addition). In calculations with multiple operations, you can tell the Calculator which operation to do first or it will follow the Order of Operations (see next page). Calculator 285

Performing
Calculations
You enter both
numbers
and
operators
for each mathematical task you
perform with the Calculator. The numbers you enter are the figures to be
computed. The operators are symbols (such as + for addition) that are
used to request a particular type of calculation.
An
operation
refers to the combination of an operator with numbers. For
example, 100 + 200 is an operation. A simple calculation consists of only
one operation. However, a calculation can consist of as many operations
as you need. For example, you may need to know the result of 100 + 200
X 5. This calculation consists of more than one operation (multiplication
and addition). In calculations with multiple operations, you can tell the
Calculator which operation to do first or it will follow the Order of
Operations (see next page).
