You should try this one. It will help you understand the operator order better.

(1+(5**(0.5)))/2

Hope this helps

This is not really a python problem and more a maths order of operations problem.

In both examples you provide, you are adding the 1 after you divide (5**(1/2)/2).

You want this:

ratio = (1 + 5**(1/2)) / 2
