In my experienced "figured" is used very commonly in America across all age groups. I feel you on it being wrong in British though, and vice-versa; I was once reading a fic about an American character who said "I've worked that out for myself, thanks" where she really should have said "I figured that out for myself, thanks". Quite jarring.

I'm American and both quotes sound normal to me.

Put me down as an American who doesn't get how "worked that out" is problematic.

(Anonymous) 2013-04-27 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
DA

Not problematic, but apparently British? I think this is a YMMV thing, because I hear "figured it out" and "worked it out" all the time.

Yeah, um, I use that all the time. Just as much as figured. And I'm from Texas.
