Christmas Calculations

To find the answer to these questions, work out the answer to these sums on a calculator, then turn the calculator upside down to read the answer!

For example if the answer is 4506, turn it the other way up and you'll see the word GOSH (well, you'll actually see... gOSh).

 

If the answer is 57718, turn it the other way up and you'll see the word BILLS.
