Or here's a simpler method: Take a calculator, substitute (a), (b) and (c) wherever applicable on a calculator.

For example, 2+3*d(4/5). (x) is the level number. You take 3 times (4/5), and then round down to the nearest 3. For example, the above equation will give you 6. The multiples of 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12... So, the value of 2+3*d(4/5) is 6. If the (d) is replaced by a (u), then it's rounding UP to the nearest 3. So, the value of 2+3*u(4/5) is 9.

It's very easy to make a mistake because of all the variables included, but for me, I use Sewil's method. Back in June 2011 when I was not around, I had my sister do the skills for me. She told me she couldn't understand what I explained (Sewil's explanation), so she used her own method. Surprisingly, both methods give the same value, so if you don't understand what Sewil said, you can try this method.

x - Level number

u - Round up

d - Round down

(On rare occasions you will see (v), but the (v) is nothing. Substitute it with 1).
