How to use

  1. Enter Value A and Value B using whole numbers or decimals.
  2. Select the operation you want to apply from the dropdown.
  3. Review the live result directly beneath the inputs.

Example

Input: Value A = 12, Value B = 8, Operation = Divide

Output: Result = 1.5

FAQ & notes

Can I divide by zero?

No. When the second value is zero and divide is selected the calculator returns “undefined” to highlight the invalid operation.

Does the calculator handle very large numbers?

Yes. Outputs greater than one million automatically switch to scientific notation while preserving the computed precision.
