Is there a way to avoid the error (Mathcad 15) when I delete (which is very common) the brackets in the denominator?

I tried it 2 ways:

type it as it reads

1/(2*x) - OK

or brackets first & fill the placeholder after

1/(.) <- 2*x - Wrong

I can't see any obvious difference

But when it is saved it appears to lose the error!!

Yes, that's what I found when I did it the way FM described.

So, my Mathcad and your are equal only in the name (but with different software)?

I can't replicate that in Mathcad 15. What exactly do you do? (I've tried deleting both parentheses, with the 2, x or both selected).

Can you post a simple worksheet with an expression on where this happens for you?

This event happens frequently in all my worksheets when I remove the parentheses in the denominator. As an example, then, I have opened a new worksheet, without a name, and wrote 1 / (2 * x), then I delete the brackets in the denominator and automatically mathcad rewrites the fraction as in the figure given previously. (I placed the harrow to indicate the result).

In the attached worksheet there is an expression with the fraction 1/(2Rs), try to delete the parenthesys and see if it happens even to you. Thank you.
