Iphone5 calculator error. 400/20 = 1

Getting an error using the calculator on my iPhone 5.


When I type in 400 divided by 20 it gives me the answer of 1.


Is anyone else getting this result?

iPhone 5, iOS 7.0.4

It's not a bug, or at least, it's not the bug you think it is. If you entter 400/20 and press "=", it will still say 20 on the screen. That's the answer. If you tap equal again, it divides the answer by 20 again, giving you again, the correct answer of 1. You can test this behavior by starting with a different number.


The calculator is working accurately. The interface is just a bit odd.


Best of luck.
