ATXAnswering question

The general rule I follwed was this. If the calculation is simple, then I would show it in the body of the text (simple here refers to a one step calculation.) If the calculation was more complex, invlving parts, I would show the result in the body of the text and make reference to it in the appendix section.

Hope that helps

d standard rule is to inlcude d calculations in an appendix. it should neva be part of d body of your report or letter even when it a very simple calculation. u should however make reference to d results in your appendix while writing d report.

ok agreed, but what about performing calculations whether to perform the Workings before and the main computation afterward or main computation before and refer workings later.

all calculations should likewise be after d main computation. wat d examiner want to see is ur solution to d question which should ideally be backed up with relevant calculations in another page. except where d examiner specifically required u to show calculations within or before d main computation, d ideal standard is to show all workings in an appendix after d main computation, it should not come first. it even makes ur work neater & easier for the marker. u should always try avoid making d marker looking for where to award u marks just coz he cant find his way thru between ur real answer & ur workings
