(e^2+1+2e/4) * e^-1
This needs some more parentheses to clarify exactly what is wanted.
The problem I'm having specifically is the 2e/4 term.
Why wouldn't that have just been called e/2 instead.
The only reason I can think of for writing 2e/4 instead of simply e/2
is that the denominator 4 applies to everything that comes before.
Thusly e2 + 1 + 2e e–1
—–———— • ———
4 1
That can be written as (e + 1)2

4e
I don't know if this is correct ... "correct" meaning what was
actually wanted, so I'm not going to paint it red like I usually do.
