Extra Pair of Brackets gives different result

I have a following formula:

=((R32/M32)^(P32-1))-((K32^(2*P32))*(R32/M32)^(-P32-1))

The result of this is '0' .

Then when I use same formula but with extra brackets on the outside

=(((R32/M32)^(P32-1))-((K32^(2*P32))*((R32/M32)^(-P32-1))))

it gives me something other than 0 .

Where I s a problem ?

Thanks

Good morning nosense

It's not just an opening bracket at the start and a close at the end. Formula 1 starts and ends with two brackets. Formula 2 starts with three and ends with four brackets.

After the first multiply (*) sign, you have a single opening bracket in formula 1 and a double in formula 2.

Thanks for pointing this out, I have fixed it but still does same thing

Those 2 formulas (in Post #4) are identicle.
So I would certainly expect both to produce the same result.

Why are you trying to add () around the original formula?

There is more that is different between the 2 formulas than just the outside (brackets)

Here is your original formula, with brackets around it
=(((R32/M32)^(P32-1))-((K32^(2*P32))*(R32/M32)^(-P32-1)))

I agree,
But they give me different result!
Please see in the sheet attached the yellow highlighted cells have same formulae in but different results.

Format both cells as Number with about 16 decimals, you'll see the difference.
