Ahh, you're right. Missed it somehow. Command 2 for scientific mode, command 3 for programmer.

There *is* a percent key on the calculator! You have to put in scientific mode. At least it's there in 10.6.8.

I don't think there is a percent key on the calculator. What are you trying to calculate? So if you were doing something like sales tax of 5% on a purchase of $500 you could just do 500 * 1.05 to find out the final amount. Is that what you need?

Okay,

earlier, when I went to work out 513+5.13% I found that the percent sign will not enter in to the calculator. Here's how I tried to punch it in:

5.13+5.13%
but the percent sign doesn't work. So, I tried 5.13/3.6 Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong here. Either it's an issue with the couculater or it's the way I'm trying to work the problem. Any advice?
