CONSTANT FUNCTION

Similar to the memory function, the constant function avoids having to input a number which is
repeated in a variety of calculations.

The procedure is as follows:

Input figure which is repetitive
Input ​twice​ mathematical operator, eg +, -, X, .
Input first figure for calculation.
Find result
Note result (or place in memory)
Press [ C ] or [ C ] (clear entry key)
Input next figure for calculation
Note result (or place in memory)
Press [ C ] or [ C ] (Clear entry key)
Continue in the same way for next calculation.

Complete the following examples on your calculator.

15 x 80 = Check
15 x 45 = Check
15 x 106 = Check
15 x 1485 = Check
15 x 65 = Check

PRACTICAL APPLICATION

Now turn to the Practical Applications and complete the two sets of practical applications for
the constant function.
