How to Use the Sum Calculator

This guide will walk you through using the Sum Calculator effectively. Follow these steps to calculate the sum and average of two numbers and format the results to your desired level of decimal precision.

Step 1: Input the First Number

• Locate the “First Number” field: This is the first input field labeled as “First Number” and is a number type input.
• Enter a number: Click on this field and input your first number. The number should be within the acceptable range of -999,999,999 to 999,999,999.
• Required field: Ensure this field is filled in, as it is marked with a “required” validation.

Step 2: Input the Second Number

• Locate the “Second Number” field: Proceed to the second input field labeled as “Second Number” which is similar to the first one.
• Enter a number: Click on this field and enter your second number, ensuring it is within the same range of -999,999,999 to 999,999,999.
• Required field: This is also a required field, so do not leave it blank.

Step 3: Select a Rounding Option

• Locate the “Rounding Option” field: This is a select-type input field where you can choose how many decimal places you want in the result.
• Choose your preferred option: Click on the dropdown menu and select one of the following:
  • “No decimals” for rounding to the nearest whole number
  • “1 decimal place” for rounding to one decimal place
  • “2 decimal places” for rounding to two decimal places
  • “3 decimal places” for rounding to three decimal places
• Required field: Make sure to select one of the options as it’s necessary for formatting your results.

Step 4: View the Results

• Sum: Once you have provided both numbers and selected the rounding option, the calculator will compute and display the sum of the two numbers. The result will be formatted to the desired number of decimal places as specified in the “Rounding Option”.
• Average: Similar to the sum, the calculator will also calculate and display the average of the two numbers. This average will also honor the rounding preference you selected.

By following these steps, you will be able to successfully use the Sum Calculator to input numbers, choose your preferred level of precision, and view both the sum and average of your numbers.
