I don't want to meet any calculation questions in the real exam. I can't calculate with a pen and a whiteboard.

Agreed, but for this one just know when you are multiplying by .05 (5%) you are taking half and move the decimal.

I feel you! I moved the decimal over once to get 10%, then cut that in half for 5% 😂 gotta use my baby math methods for these calculations. maybe that'll help somebody!
