MINVERSE works sometimes on Excel 365, but produces only 1 output on most

I've just used the matrix you use. Without the braces I get a single entry of 6.49852. With braces I get just the formula, i.e., it doesn't recognize the = sign. When I first used MINVERSE successfully it inserted the braces for me, outside the = sign, I think. I could send the entire spread sheet, but now I don't know where to attach it.
