Hack your math with our four-function calculator. Clear it—“C”—and dive in. Add in bursts: 7 + 7 + 7 = 21, no breaks. Subtract mid-flow: 80 - 20 - 10 = 50. Multiply on repeat: 4 × 5 × 2 = 40 (20, then 40). Divide slick: 36 ÷ 6 = 6, instant. Hack one: 5 + 3 × 4, do 3 × 4 (12), then 5 + 12 = 17—control order. Hack two: estimate—10 × 4 ≈ 40—then check (40). Hack three: skip “=” until done—15 + 5 - 3 = 17 flows fast. Real-world? $25 × 3 - $15 = 60 (75 - 15). Hack four: group tasks—multiply all quantities, then add totals. Practice: 6 × 2 + 3 = 15 (12 + 3). Speed’s the goal—type steady, trust it. Mistakes? Redo quick.
