Calculations Using Constants

To store a constant for use in repetitive calculations, enter a number and an operation, and then press & `. To use the stored constant, key in a value and press N. Note: Pressing a key other than a number or N clears the constant.

Example: Multiply 3, 7, and 45 by 8

Keystrokes for Constant Calculations

This table shows how to create a constant for various operations.

To*	Press**
Add c to each subsequent entry.	n H & ` c N
Subtract c from each subsequent entry.	n B & ` c N
Multiply each subsequent entry by c.	n < & ` c N
Divide each subsequent entry by c.	n 6 & ` c N
Raise each subsequent entry to the power of c.	n ; & ` c N
Add c% of each subsequent entry to that entry.	n H & ` c 2 N
Subtract c% of each subsequent entry from the entry.	n B & ` c 2 N

* The letter c denotes the constant value.

** Repeat constant calculations with n N.
