When using the symbolic solver, Mathcad Prime 11 often puts in unnecessary parentheses. I've tried every keyword in the symbolics pull-down menu to get rid of the parentheses with no luck. Is there a way to get Mathcad to remove the unnecessary parentheses? For example, I would like to see the following.
I'm afraid you won't have any luck with Prime. Prime's symbolics offers far too few options for manipulating and controlling the display of its results.
You can get something similar to what you want to see in legacy Mathcad 15
But PTC has replaced the symbolic engine used in MC15 and in Prime up to version 6 (muPad) with a different one (Axum FreCAS) and develop the symbolics now themselves. And the ‘new’ engine in Prime often displays results differently, and there are hardly any reasonable ways to influence this significantly and it also often has different concepts of what ‘simplify’ or ‘factor’ should actually accomplish.
