There are various reasons why this is wrong, though the calculator shows that it is correct. I will give you a simple introduction about this problem: it is not true, because it is a violation of Fermat's Last Theorem. This is known as a "Fermat near miss."
A calculator will tell you that two sides are equal, but there are digits of the numbers that are not equal.
For the people who don't know what is the Fermat's Last Theorem, here is a simple and quick idea:
The Fermat's Last Theorem states that there is no integer that n can hold when n > 2 in the following equation:
x n + y n = z n
Getting the link to the question; the question states that:
1 7 8 2 1 2 + 1 8 4 1 1 2 = 1 9 2 2 1 2
Therefore this can't be true becuse it is violating the Fermat's Last Theorem so the answer to this question is No
