Most calculators will require that you enclose the numerator in parentheses. You may or may not need to do that for the square root function and denominator as well.

My calculator uses RPN, so the sequence of keys would be ...

  16 . . . x^2

  17 . . . - (minus) . . . displaying 239

  2.3 . . . enter

  5.87 . . . + . . . displaying 8.17

  √ . . . . displaying 2.85832118559

  ÷ . . . . displaying 83.6155157107

This kind of calculator gives me complete control over the way the calculation is done, so no parentheses are needed. (The number 239 simply waits for the ÷ operation.)

Some "algebraic" calculators do not conform to the Order of Operations, and some do not have enough memory for pending operations. The manual doesn't always point out the limitations.

I like the G.oogle calculator because it is guaranteed to conform to the Order of Operations. That requires you to know where to use parentheses. Its final display always uses parentheses to show exactly how it did the computation.

the y will be in still but your answer will be y x 3
