import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.EditText;


public class MainActivity extends Activity {

Button button1;
String text;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    addListenerOnButton();
}

public void addListenerOnButton() {

    button1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttoncalculate);
    button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

    public void onClick(View view) {

        EditText editText = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText1);
        String text = editText.getText().toString();

             Intent myIntent = new Intent(view.getContext(),Calculated.class);
             myIntent.putExtra("mytext",text);
             startActivity(myIntent);

        }
    });

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.activity_main, menu);

Calculated.java

public class Calculated extends Activity {

TextView mTextview;

    setContentView(R.layout.calculated);

       mTextview = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView1);

       mTextview.setText(getIntent().getStringExtra("mytext"));
}

calculated.xml

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity" >

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/textView1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    android:layout_marginTop="42dp"
    android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />

</RelativeLayout>

To send the data from one activity to another activity

MainActivity.java is first activity from where you want to send data to another activity.

Intent myIntent = new Intent(view.getContext(), Calculated.class);
myIntent.putExtra("text", text);
startActivity(myIntent);

Calculated.java is second activity which receive the intent data whatever you pass from MainActivity.java

String text = myIntent.getStringExtra("text");
TextView textView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView1);
textView.setText(text);
