ALG: Summary C-5
If you were to key in , the calculator would
calculate the result, -107.6471. However, that’s not what you want. To delay the
division until you’ve subtracted 12 from 85, use parentheses:
You can omit the multiplication sign (×) before a left parenthesis. Implied
multiplication is not available in Equation mode. For example, the expression 2 × (5
– 4) can be entered as 4, without the key inserted between 2
and the left parenthesis.
