Nope just tried. 7+10% = 7.1 It converted 10% to be 0.1

Sigh. Yes on a computer/phone/browser I can see that. On a real life calculator, (which you even referenced as a "regular old digital calculator") I've not see that. That's what I've been talking about from the start JFC.

I haven't had one of these in ages but I'm pretty sure that's where I learned the trick.

If it has a double zero it's probably an accounting calculator.

But in any case, in case you didn't notice when I said JFC that means I'm not interested in talking with someone that intentionally misreads what's said and posts a picture of a fucking iPhone calculator JFC. Ciao.
