irutschka | My calculator somehow gives 8 as an answer. Anybody has the same? |
irutschka | Sorry, everything is fine with 10 ;)) |
cptp | I got 9.68, hence 10 is correct. |
airborne | the answer is 10.0001 everything is OK |
Bevin | Don't forget to put END in your calculator. I forgot the first time and got 9.68. Once I changed, I got 10. |
swinter44 | If you're having trouble coming up with the correct answer, check to ensure that you don't have P/Y set to a number other than 1 from a previous question. |
uhupong | Good reminding Bevin. Those who set cal with BEG and got 9.68 just got lucky this time. |

I used your notes and passed ... highly recommended!
