Near the top of the keyboard was the original place for the numerical keys, and still is, but a second set of these keys is find on the right side of the keyboard (or hidden on a few of the letter keys if it's not there) so that people can type numbers with one hand at an increased speed if, for whatever reason, they are typing a lot of numbers at the same time.

How do you get a equals sign on your keyboard?

That really depends on the keyboard layout. I use US-International - similar to US in most cases, and I have the equal sign right to the left of the backspace key. Try all keys - both with, and without, shift, and take a not of any key which appears where it is not drawn, or which you may need. In an emergency, in Windows, you can use Alt-61 or Alt-061 (with the numeric keyboard on the right).That really depends on the keyboard layout.
