Re: possibly OT:working percentages on the calculater
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?

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? Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!! Now a very proud and happy Mac user!!!

Re: possibly OT:working percentages on the calculater
There *is* a percent key on the calculator! You have to put in scientific mode. At least it's there in 10.6.8. Egun On, Lagunak! (Basque for G'Day, Mates) Louie P.

Ahh, you're right. Missed it somehow. Command 2 for scientific mode, command 3 for programmer. CB On 10/20/11 12:06 PM, Pete Nalda wrote: There *is* a percent key on the calculator!

Re: possibly OT:working percentages on the calculater
Switch to scientific view and the Shift 5 will work for entering percent.

possibly OT:working percentages on the calculater
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?
