  • Page 2 30.00 150.00 The ability to perform chain calculations is an immense advantage in the use of the HP 17bll+. Let’s try the slightly more involved problem shown below, to ensure you feel comfortable in working these calculations: 18 + 12(240 - 3)
  • Page 3 HP 17bII+ Chain Calculations The open parentheses is inserted here because ‘18’ is going to be added to the result of the rest of the arithmetic operation in the numerator. That is, before we can add ‘18’ we have to get the result of ‘12’ times the result of ‘240’ minus ‘3.’...
  • Page 4 HP 17bII+ Chain Calculations REVERSE POLISH NOTATION: As was demonstrated in the Algebraic mode, it is usually easier (less keystrokes) in working a problem like this to begin with the arithmetic operations inside the parentheses first. We do that in the keystrokes shown below to solve this problem:...
