Nothing activates it. It works directly. You can use the numeric keypad to enter numbers in any app that receives text. You can use it with the default calculator App to enter numbers and operations for calculations if you want.
If you have to done so, pair the keyboard to the Mac by following the steps here: link-> Set up your Magic Keyboard, Magic Mouse, or Magic Trackpad with your Mac - Apple Support
It does not on its own open a calculator or do operations. It just adds keys for you to do that more conveniently when in apps that can take inputs or operations like the calculator app.
