hey i read few pages back a lot ppl saying the calculator is buggy/ not correct. am i the only one think its correct?

i really think 100-10% is 99.9 which is CORRECT. any math master can clarify this please?
Added on November 5, 2012, 6:07 amif u want to deduct 10% out of 100, the equation should be like this:
100 - (10% X 100) = 90
10% is 0.1 for god sake.
i can't brain why somebody capable of doing big business dealing big money couldn't figure out percentage.

Why, you don't say...
Calculator (yes, even the RM10 ones from pasar malam) has the ability to make calculations easier.
When ppl talk abt percentages, it is always used in relation to a defined value.
It is very silly to talk abt percentage as an absolute.
For example, when the 42 ringgit item is on sale, say 30%, almost all calculators will give the correct answer when user naturally will key in 42 - 30%.
Why wld anybody bother abt 30% being 0.3?
I'm very shocked that Samsung cannot even get their calculator app right.
Instead of sending their ppl to listen to pebble droppings, they shld get the basics right first.
