Answer:

123 + (456 + 789)

Explanation:

since this is an addition problem, the parenthesis don't matter, and they can be put wherever you want.

(123 + 456) + 789

123 + 456 + 789

(123 + 456 + 789)

123 + (456 + 789)

technically, any of these would work, but I think the kind of answer the problem is looking for is;

123 + (456 + 789)
