Simpler, they may just want men to think they are as perfect as they want to appear to them, trying to hide what they consider to be the ugly truth about themselves. And I may be reading more into it than is there, but I do believe they consider the basis of the lies to be justified."

A calculator is one good answer but so is writing the amount on a bar napkin (I'm not being a smart-ass--I've done it, and for that reason, nearly always carry a pen or Sharpie).
