Actually you are right - a sticky topic on how to use the calculator would be good.

Do you want to organise it for us?   Just give it a little thought.  :)

I think Ninja was doing one but I never saw it - maybe he has it in his watchlist, you could ask him.

Trouble is he is not on very often any more.  :(

Maybe someone else would like this job?

okay

Just tell them to Refer to the

STICKY TOPIC "How do I type in Fractions"

which can be found on the bottom right side of the page.   

FIRSTLY - DO NOT GIVE NEGATIVE POINTS TO PEOPLE WHO ARE TRYING TO HELP YOU!

IF YOU THINK THAT THEIR ANSWER IS WRONG AND YOU WANT TO COMMENT THEN DO SO WITH A COMMENT POST.  THAT WAY THEY CAN LEARN TOO!

0.5 is being added each time.  So I think that the answer you are after is  

$$X_0=0.9,\qquad X_n=X_{n-1}+0.5$$

Yes that is true - BUT your instructions DO NOT MAKE SENSE!

calculator on the home page sticky topic  ?????????????

okay okay - that is another way of doing it i guess. 

$${\frac{{\mathtt{8}}}{{\mathtt{5}}}} = {\mathtt{1.6}}$$

Those instructions do not make sense Zegroes :)

what a great illustration flfvm97     

You have 2 good answers here.

I'll give you a third (really easy one)

$${\frac{{\mathtt{7}}}{{\mathtt{200}}}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{100}} = {\frac{{\mathtt{7}}}{{\mathtt{2}}}} = {\mathtt{3.5}}$$

3.5%

$${\frac{{\mathtt{3}}}{{\mathtt{150}}}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{100}} = {\mathtt{2}}$$

2%

Yes it is that easy. :)

$$\\80=8\times 10\\\\
or\\\\
80=8\times 10^1$$
