@8emi95 I like the way you did that. Although I do understand it, it's nice if I can see something that I glance at it and instantly know rather than having to take a few seconds or more to translate. Changing the * to an x was a good start, because the x has always been what I associated with multiplication. Seriously, if they wanted us to take the * serious as a multiplication symbol, they should have taught it to us in preschool or kindergarten. . . or when ever we learned multiplication (probably was a little later than that, but I forget exactly). It's not as if we weren't learning a new symbol with the division sign, so they could have done the same with multiplication, but no, they had to teach us one thing and then decide we needed to learn something new later because they couldn't do something simple like keep the alphabet out of math or if they were going to involve the alphabet, start with the other end. Why not AxB=C instead of X*Y=Z? End rant.

Anyway, I like it.
