Mathematical Calculations
15
For more complex problems requiring two or more operations, you do not need to enter
parentheses to set operational priority. Key in numbers and operations inside the parentheses
first, followed by those outside of the parentheses. If a problem has more than one set of
parentheses, start by working with the operations and numbers in the innermost parentheses
and work out. For example, calculate:
(3 + 4) x (5 + 6)
One way to calculate this problem is to key in the numbers and operations within the
parentheses first, followed by the operation outside of the parentheses. See Table 2-3.
