arithmetical
Involving basic calculations
Arithmetical means relating to arithmetic—the branch of mathematics dealing with numbers and basic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
An arithmetical error is a mistake in calculation.
Arithmetical progression describes a sequence where each term differs from the previous by a constant amount.
The word is interchangeable with arithmetic as an adjective, though arithmetical sounds slightly more formal.
