I am constantly making small, stupid mistakes in every thing down to misspelling a word I know or 3 X 2 = 5 or forgetting small things. I am not looking for 100% all the time, but I have mistakes like this on everything I do. It gets real annoying, I never get 100% there is always something or other I messed up. Any advice for decreasing my amount of small mistakes?

PS I used the spell check and I misspelled a word.

Methinks there is a perfectionist in the house.

Check over your work after you are done doing it. Eventually you will learn not to make the mistakes in the first place. Also, don't rush things; just take your time and you will save yourself a lot of trouble.

Okay I will. Thanks. Pretty obvious now...

After you do your homework you can also ask someone, like your parents, to just check over your work to make sure you didn't make any mistakes.
