| − | : | + | : In addition to all this, I've noticed that your use of brackets is erratic. For example, on [[Episode 1523]], you entered 963 = ((6 + 4) × 10) + (5 + 2) × 9. Should be ((6 + 4) × 10 + 5 + 2) × 9. The way you'd written it, it added up to 163, not 963, because multiplication and division have precedence over addition and subtraction by the rules of arithmetic notation. -- [[User:Smjg|smjg]] 17:17, 27 November 2009 (UTC) |

Hello, whoever you are, thank you for your contributions. A few tips:

- Check that you're adding all the appropriate categories. I've noticed that many of the ones you've put in are missing the numbers solutions, and so ought to have Category:Partial recaps.
