You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"8%286%2B7%29\"$ .........there is symbol between the $\"8\"$ and the $\"%286%2B7%29\"$ and it is $\"multiplication+\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if you have the $\"8\"$ in front of the parentheses, like $\"%286%2B7%29+\"$ , means you should multiply $\"%286%2B7%29+\"$ by $\"8\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so,\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"8%286%2B7%29=48%2B56=104\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "or, you can do it this way
\n" ); document.write( " $\"8%286%2B7%29=8%2813%29=104\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
