Guest guest Posted November 12, 2002 Report Share Posted November 12, 2002 Do you mean you can't even have a % key on your calculator??? That will be hard to find! Calculators I have three basic calculators and they all have % on them?Ive searched and can't seem to find a calculator without the %.Anybody know a store that sells them. Thanks,(aka man of many calculators) Here is the reply I received from pctb: Any of the basic (most inexpensive) calculators that you can pick-up will be fine. The guidelines stipulate that you cannot use a scientific calculator that allows you to store formulas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 12, 2002 Report Share Posted November 12, 2002 Dear All, Especially , man of many calculators! I hope that I have not worried you unnecessarily. I took my exam in l996 and we were told no calculators with percent signs. They were easier to find back then. Today, I have not seen a basic calculator with out one. But what I wanted to get across is that if you had one to bring it and that it would be more acceptable. But with the answer that you got from PTCB I would go with what you have and take a copy of that email. In fact anyone else concerned go ahead and take a copy of that email/post with ya. I am sure they too are aware that 'no one' can find such an animal. I hope this helps calm you down!

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Maureen, If you're talking about on-lin lye calculators I like the one here: http://www.the-sage.com/calcs/lyecalc2.php It has good information with it. Creekside Soaps calculators Can someone provide instructions on, or post a link to instructions, for using online calculators? ======================================================== Maureen Barger, CIT/ID, Cornell University Ithaca, NY 14850 mf12@... http://mo.cit.cornell.edu/ " If I didn't start painting, I would have raised chickens.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 Hi again when i got my confirmation letter for the ptcb in July they stated only a calculator that has + - x and divide but the calculator i use has + - x divide % and square root . It is not programable nor does it print . Will they allow this? I don't want to get there and have them tell me I can't use it. I would panic big time since MATH is not my strong point.I have an 800 # to call but I thought you would know. I love your site and all the HARD WORK you put into it. You are VERY appreciated.
