| May 7, 2015 at 8:58 | comment | added | Nejc | @leoll2 that is why my comment applies :). You assumed things, that are not given. Maybe "+" and "-" represent some different operation. For instance "+" could represent string concatenation and "-" would represent removal of all characters appearing in right operand from the left operand. In this setting, there is nothing much you can say... | |

| May 6, 2015 at 15:37 | comment | added | leoll2 | @Nejc The author didn't mention about operators not being used the "standard" way, so I assume that plus means addition. Did he also mention that each letter corresponds to one number? No! | |
| May 6, 2015 at 13:48 | comment | added | Nejc | This is true, if you assume A, B, C are numbers, and +,- are addition and subtraction of numbers. You are assuming commutative and distributive property of objects. | |
| May 6, 2015 at 13:41 | comment | added | Bailey M | Perhaps a more (or at least another) intuitive way of phrasing it would be the simple substitution of A + (B - A) - B? | |
