HP 48G Solver parantheses - ptros - 07-13-2014 02:12 PM

The equation solver on my 35s handles parentheses without issue, for example...
C=(((T-W)/45)*1000)+A
However on my 48g the Solver removes my parentheses where the formula is as follows...
C=(T-W)/45*1000+A
This is resulting in an incorrect value for C.
Anyone know why the Solver on the 48g is removing my parentheses?

Expressions are stored in a compiled format and only decompiled for display. These parentheses are superfluous. That's why they aren't added. But this is done in general and has nothing to do with the solver.

I doubt that this is the reason. Could you provide some values that are incorrect?

Kind regards
