f(x+f(x)+f(y))=f(y+f(x)+x+f(y)−f(f(y)))?     There is bracket missing on RHS.  Is it at the end?

$${f}\left({x}+{f}\left({x}\right)+{f}\left({y}\right)\right)={f}\left({y}+{f}\left({x}\right)+{x}+{f}\left({y}\right)−{f}\left({f}\left({y}\right)\right)\right)?\: \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\mathrm{There}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{bracket}\:\mathrm{missing}\:\mathrm{on}\:\mathrm{RHS}. \\ $$$$\mathrm{Is}\:\mathrm{it}\:\mathrm{at}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{end}? \\ $$
