I'm late to this... but this calculator also easily does ∆% calculations. For example; someone making $8 an hour get a raise to $10. What is the ∆%. On this machine it's [new value] - [old value] shift %... in this case entered 10 - 8 shift %... which is a 25% raise. Or if they were making 10 and got busted to $8, it's 8 - 10 shift % which is -20%. Just remember it's [new value] - [old value] shift % on the little Casio. (Most HP calculators have a dedicated ∆% key... with those (in RPN mode) it's old value [enter] new value [∆%])
I think all Casio scientific calculators have this feature because even my much older programmable Casio fx-4800P from last century has this same percentage feature. /Promoting scientific calculators for the benefit of mankind.
What is with the cute lil dinosaur???? I can't😂 I feel like I'm in the right place, I love that guy , I also use dino emoticons all the time 🦕🦖 hahaha. Anyways! Thank you for all of these tutorials. I'm studying for my GED and this is the calculator we need to use.
01:04 .... id rather reprogram the calculator with a PER key or % .... you simple hit 880 % 660 = and or 660 % 880 = what it doez iz take the higher number you input and convert it to a circle and 100 percent .... then it take the lower number and in put it into a slice in to the circle number that iz 880 .... then = converts it to 100 percent so you can write it both wayz with out making a mistake and just az e z az .... 60 x 5 .... 60 + 5 .... 60 - 5 .... 60 ÷ 5 .... 60 % 5 ....
If only T.I. had not forgotten how to calculate percentages with their scientific calculators! TI calculators cannot even add or subtract a percentage the normal way it is carried out here on Casio, or on Sharp, or on Canon scientific calculators. For shame! /Regards
It's really does seem strange that TI seems to over complicate this basic function while so many other calculator makers have it figured out. It's not something I would think to cut out if space is an issue.
I am from India, and I have never seen a TI calculator (except in pictures) in my life! Used only one Sharp calculator. I have used various Casio calculators from the 80s (2), 90s (8 to 10) and 2000s (8).

Your videos about this particular calculator are great and very helpful. Thank you.
You're welcome! I've tried to cover all the important functions of this model.
Thank you very much!
I have the Casio fx-82solar fraction calculator and it has the same functionality as the fx-260!
You're welcome! I'm glad to hear this is transferable to the fx-82solar as well.
This is very helpful, I was having trouble in class today trying to figure out how to use the percent sign. 😂 Thank you.
Glad this helped, I agree the % sign can be a little tricky to get used to.

The dino is just for fun, I'm glad you like him! Good luck on your GED!
@@HDCalcs I know and it's adorable. How cute of you hahaha 😂☺ And thank you so much!!! I'm studying my butt off! I hope I pass... *gulps* lol.
can this calculator go back to calculation history?

00:32 so in my calculator computer you would enter 1500 % 12 = 180 .... 12 % 1500 = 180 ....

@@HDCalcs there are two functions that TI makes extremely cumbersome: sexagesimal DEG-MIN-SEC calculations, and percentage calculations. /S.M.H.
