Honestly, I don't know how to read your post, because major rules of mathematical punctuation are violated.


Should I read yours  -3/1/8   as  -3%2F%28%281%2F8%29%29 ?    Or   -31%2F8 ?   Or something else ?


This forum REQUIRES from visitors to use parentheses to show which part of the formula is numerator and which is denominator.


So, if you want to get help, make an effort to write your formulas / (your numbers) correctly / (unambiguously).
