Let's try to simplify it without all of the math symbols.

You multiply the number of earned runs allowed by 9.
Divide that number by the number of innings pitched (including partial innings like 1/3 or 2/3 innings completed).

For example, a pitcher gives up 3 runs in the last 14 1/3 innings pitched.

3 x 9 = 27
27 divided by 14.3 innings = 1.888 ERA rounded to 1.89
