Hi Cheri,

Just type your math equation into Google and it will display the answer.
Also check your programs in your PC, I'm sure there is a calculator in there.

Hope this helps.

I you want to do simple calculations in your CSS you can use the calc() function. Like so:

.div {
    width: 90%; //fallback for unsupported calc()
    width: calc(100% - 80px);
