Calculator won't reset
Hi. I used someone else's calculator that they built for my project. I needed several instances of it. The only problem is that they seem to be connected. Maybe it is due to the variables? Anyway, so...

Yes, the problem is that all of the calculators use the same variables.
If you don't need a given calculator to show the previously calculated value if a learner returns to a slide, you can simply add a trigger that sets the "currentNum" variable to 0 when the timeline starts. Put that trigger on every slide with a calculator.
If you do want each calculator to retain its previously entered value, you need to use a different variable to store each calculation.
