Complicated Equation

((((X) - ((Y) / (X))) * (2)) / (((X) - ((Y) / (X))) * (2)))
(X) // 78
(Y) // 455

My answer is -450.1666666666667, any toughts?

Complicated Equation

well if you have one equation divided by that same equation, you're gonna get 1.
ex: (1+1)/(1+1) would basically be 2/2, which is 1.

Edit: he changed his answer

What do you mean “opinions”? there is not much “opinion” in a single equation

It's pretty clearly 1 because x/x=1

Complicated Equation

You didn't specify the base, so I'll start by treating it as base 9 or nonary.
78 in nonary is equivalent to 7*9+8*1 = 71 and 455 is 4*81+5*9+5*1 = 374, and 2 is still equal to 2. Then, both sides are still equal, so it's still equal to 1. Which is unfortunate. But I'm sure we can do better than that.
So, instead, let's try doing it without bidmas i.e. ignore brackets and just do everything in the order it appears. If we translate that to using bidmas, we get ((((((78-455)/78)*2)/78)-455)/78)*2, which is equal to -11.6698444006!
So there we go. If we ignore some of the most basic rules of maths, we don't get 1. Take that, people who like following bidmas! However, if we just happened to be working with modular equations and were working in modulo -11.6698444006, that would all be equal to 0.21687669422. Thankyou.
