Did you know you can use Google search to perform calculations. Yes you can use it as a
basic Scientific Calculator .

Google’s calculator tries to understand the problem you are attempting to solve without requiring you to use special syntax.
Google allows you to perform all these operations.There is no need to know any special
codes. LOOK at the ways to perform some operations.
Operator Function Example
+ addition 3+44
- subtraction 13-5
* multiplication 7*8
/ division 12/3
^ exponentiation (raise to a power of) 8^2
% modulo (finds the remainder after division) 8%7
choose X choose Y determines the number of ways of choosing a set of Y elements from a set of X elements 18 choose 4
th root of calculates the nth root of a number 5th root of 32
% of X % of Y computes X percent of Y 20% of 150
sqrt square root sqrt(9)
sin, cos, etc. trigonometric functions (numbers are assumed to be radians) sin(pi/3)
tan(45 degrees)
ln logarithm base e ln(17)
log logarithm base 10 log(1,000)
! factorial 5!

Parentheses can be used in your expression.In this case the operation in () will be evaluated first
For example :- (111+222)*123 addition happens before the multiplication


You can use hexadecimal, octal and binary numbers. By using prefix
hexadecimal numbers with 0x,
octal numbers with 0o
binary numbers with 0b
You van perform operations of these datatypes too.
For example :- 0x7f + 0b1001.


Many physical and mathematical constants can be used in your expression.These constants and units have both long and short names. You can use either in most cases.
For example :- km and kilometer both work.

You can even convert currency from one form to another.
