Question 465353

Depends.


Do you mean:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{1}{9}a\ -\ \frac{2}{3}a]


or


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{1}{9a}\ -\ \frac{2}{3a}]


Use parentheses to eliminate ambiguity when you render mathematical expressions in plain text.


(1/9)a - (2/3)a  OR 1/(9a) - 2/(3a)?
