It's simple be the first to reply with the correct answer to the following math problem.
((325216 / 3 x (13 x 13 x 13)) - (1.548785) x .007)=?
Show your work btw!
((325216/3*(2197))-(1.548785)*.007) =
((325216/3*(2197))-0.010841) =
((325216/6591)-0.010841) =
therefore
325216=6591*0.010841

That's interesting, because as far as I can recall multiplication has the same priority as division. Been a while since I did any math stuff though.

I only now saw that the first number is random.
And since it's =? you wind up with 2 variables, of which the one changes everytime you hit refresh.
Hence there is no answer, which is why the OP felt comfortable to put up 5 bil 
He asked for "the correct answer", which would of course not be a number since the number is changing, but there is still an answer that is correct.

I hope i got the quote right... :S
but, i was doubting there for a minute.
10 / 2 x 5 = ?
10 / 2 = 5. 5 x 5 = 25
or
2 x 5 = 10. 10 / 10 = 1
so it does matter ;)

It matters, but as far as I recall it has the same priority, which means that the division would have to be done first since it's more to the left.
I could be wrong though.

( ( Rnd / 3 x ( 13 x 13 x 13 ) ) - ( 1.548785 ) x .007 ) = ?
First we do the insides of the paranthese's (if that is proper english)
and remove them afterwards.
( ( Rnd / 3 x 2179 ) - 1.548785 x .007 ) = ?
Now we multiply before we devide,
( ( Rnd / 6591 ) - 0,010841495 ) = ?
In math class we were taught that you can move a number to the other side
of the problem (i dont know the exact english words, so pardon my english :p)
by doing this, you make a positive number negative and vise versa.
Rnd / 6591 = 0,010841495
Uh problem. Apart from the "multiplication comes before division" issue *), you just dropped the ?
Try keeping going with this:
Rnd / 6591 = ? + 0,010841495
Originally by: Ares Online
Rnd / 6591 = 0,010841495
To solve this problem, simply multiply 6591 * 0,010841495
The answer is = 71,456293545
If you'd properly written down the answer, you'd found it to actually read
Rnd = 71,456293545
In other words you found out what the random number will be, every time.
Somehow I don't think this answer matches the question.
*) Someone else also mentioned this - please go pod whoever tought you that. But I have still hope, since you found out on your own that there's a slight difference between 10/(2*5) and (10/2)*5. You *could* however change the order: 10/2*5 = 10*5/2 Maybe that was the original idea here.

Well... there's one equation and two variables, so it's unsolvable until you get another equation (the pseudo-random generator).
The algorithm is probably ASP's random number generator.
Without the algorithm, you can only get this far:
x/3 * 2197 - 0.010841495 = y
or
x = (3y + 0.032524985) / 2197
(I'm assuming here that x/3 * 2197 = (x/3) * 2197 and not x/(3*2197))
The second equation actually generates X, the random number if y is the current seed, so this second equation is equivalent to the random number generator in the first place.

Here it goes...
428382 / 3 = 142794
13 x 13 x 13 = 2197
142794 x 2197 = 313718418
313718418 - 1.548785 = 313719416.451215
313719416.451215 x .007 = 2196028.915158505
so my awnser is 2196028.915158505
i think im wrong.......... |

Send in a picture for a graph :)
y = A*x + B
where A and B are constants, and say x is the random number and y is the correct result looks to me a lot like you'd get a (linear) graph.

Last time I checked ".007" wasn't valid notation anyway, as the leading zero has been dropped, and in any event in SI I believe the decimal point should be represented as "+" not ".".
...
"((rnd / 3) x ((13 x 13) x 13)) - (1.548785 x 0.007)=?" Would probably be a correct expression of what appears to be being asked - multiplication, subtraction and addition are commutative but division isn't, and division operations at the same bracket level always take priority. Doing the trivial operations gives you
((rnd / 3) x 2197) - 0.010841495=?
Then you can jig it around a bit to, say
rnd = (? + 0.010841495)* 3/2197
Or
? = 2179/3 * rnd - 0.010841495
Depending on which variable you want to isolate, which you can then plot on a graph if you could be bothered, which I can't because I don't believe the OP intends to pay anything and in any case I'm slightly more lazy than I am bored.

And the sumk will always work out. And the answer will always be correct

doesnt multiply go before divide?
so:
((51008 / 3 x (13x13x13)) - (1,548785) x 0.007) is the same as
(51008 / 3x13x13x13) - (1,548785 x 0.007) =
(51008 / 3x2197) - (1,548785 x 0.007) =
(51008 / 6591) - 0,010841495 =
EDIT: The real correct answer
PS: im using the rnd tag, but it will only give the same number twice if its in the same post, so if the OP would be so kind as to copy the text including the tags (get them by QUOTEing my solution) of this post into his original post, that should fix the changing numbers...
PPS: Im stealing someone's google trick, only I force the right brackets onto google (google messus up the brackets, and subsequently gives the wrong answer)

No.
Brackets first
then multiply or divide (Doesn't matter which) 10/5x2 = 10x2/5
then plus or minus
