Is it possible to accomplish time calculations with scientific calculators?
Yes, it is possible. The sexagesimal base number is based on the number 60. This base number is used for time and angle measurement. For time measures where 1 hour equals 60 minutes and 1 minute=60 seconds, Casio scientific calculators can carry out time calculations as well as angle calculations. The following are calculations using the fx-115MS. Operation on other scientific calculator models (fx-991MS, fx-115WA, fx-991WA, fx-3650P, fx-82ES, etc.) is similar. Examples: To convert the decimal value 2.258 to a sexagesimal value Key Operation: [2] [.] [2] [5] [8] [=] [°'”] Displayed Result: 2°5°8.8° (2 hours 15 minutes and 28.8 seconds) Time calculation with sexagesimal values: 5 hours 34 minutes and 48 seconds are to be added to 8 hours 16 minutes and 51 seconds. Key Operation: [5] [°'”] [3] [4] [°'”] [4] [8] [°'”] [+] [8] [°'”] [1] [6] [°'”] [5] [1] [°'”] [=] Displayed Result: 13°1°9° (13 hours 51 minutes and 39 seconds) The result can be converted into decimal value.
