Making calculator using Ajax with jQuery validator…

I’m making calculator using Ajax with validator plugin I could make calculator work but cannot implement validator to this… there are 2 issues.

Since my HTML code’s button type is ‘button’ validation plugin doesn’t work. if I change this to ‘submit’ it redirect to the other page.
Ajax conduct the answer before the validation!

I tried beforeSubmit and submitHandler…..maybe I used it wrong?…
what’s wrong with my JavaScript code?… could anyone help me out please? Many thanks!

Check that the form is valid by adding a call to jQuery valid() method after validate():

$(function() {
  $("#form").validate({
    // 체크할 항목들의 룰 설정
    rules: {
      number1: {
        required: true,
        digits: true
      },
      number2: {
        required: true,
        digits: true
      }
    },

    messages: {
      number1: {
        required: "this field is mandatory"

      },
      number2: {
        required: "this field is mandatory"
      }
    },
  });
  return $("#form").valid()
})

function calculate(buttonType) {
  if ($("#form").valid()) {
    console.log("Valid!");
    $.ajax({
      url: "result.php",
      type: "GET",
      async: false,
      data: {
        calType: buttonType,
        number1: $("#number1").val(),
        number2: $("#number2").val(),
      },
    }).done(function(data) {
      $('#result').text(data);
    });
  }
}
