Instead of simply stating the equation with its result how can I should break it down to show the specific values assigned to the variables and how they contribute to the final result. for example if I have p:=10 q:=20 I want to show r:= p+q=10+20=30 is this something i can do?

Use symbolic evaluation with keyword 'explicit'

 

Success!

    Here is another example with some explanations.

    If I remember PTC's plans for future versions correctly, it shouldn't take another 10 years (as Raiko fears) until you can hide keywords in Prime, just like you always could in the real Mathcad (you could also replace the arrow with an equal sign there).

    Of course, it could be made neater looking in old Mathcad

    "like you always could in the real Mathcad"

    Can't hide symbolic keyword in Mathcad 11...☹️

    Maybe Mathcad 11 isn't real Mathcad. Just hope it will not become imaginary any time soon.

    OK, its a long time agon since i last used MC11 and have no working copy left. So hiding keywords obviously was introduced later than I thought ...
