They're more than equal - ab means a*b. It's an identity, which you'd understand, if you weren't lying about being a teacher.

They’re more than equal

They're not equal at all 🙄

If a=2, b=3...

1/ab=1/(2x3)=1/6

1/axb=1/2x3=3/2=1.5

It’s an identity, which you’d understand

Nope! axb==ab is an identity, which is NOT how it's written, "illiterate fraud" as per your other comment

if you weren’t lying about being a teacher

Convention saying 1/a(b+c)^2^ is 1/(a(b+c)^2^) instead of (1/a)(b+c)^2^ doesn't change how only (b+c) is squared.

Convention saying 1/a(b+c)2 is 1/(a(b+c)2)

There's no such convention, given it would violate The Distributive Law 🙄
