Mistake in the ACE the technical Pilot Interview

Dear all,

Maybe i'm wrong but during some train in "performance and flight training" page 214 (edition 2 of Ace the technical Pilot Interview), i found a error concerning the PNR.
Indeed, in the book he is written to find the PNR you have to calculate like this :
PNR = E*H / O*H

According to bristol ground school PNR means Point of safe return (Enough fuel reserve to go back at your departure airport).
In Bristol ground school the formula is :

PNR (PSR) = E*H / O + H

E mean time, H mean GS home, O mean GS out.

Could you please check it if i'm wrong or not ?

Thanks everydoby
