    That guy lectured my friend who did maths at uni.

    Incidentally, there's not much actual maths skils required for that - he didnt know what the answers to the intermediate stages were, just that (75x-50)/25 is the same as 3x-2

    but it isn't !!

    (75 x -50)/25 = -150</p>

    3 x -2 = -6</p>
