❔ ✅ Equation in code

I have thsese two equations, one is inverse of another. I managed to get orange equation to work but green one does not for some reason. Any Ideas what I did wrong?

public static int GetLevel(decimal XP)
        {
            double level = 4 * Math.Pow((double)XP, 0.2794) - 5;
            level = Math.Floor(level);
            return (int)level;
        }

        public static double GetXpForLevel(int level)
        {
            double XP = Math.Pow((level + 5) / 4, 5000 / 1397); //gives wrong output
            return XP;
        }

public static int GetLevel(decimal XP)
        {
            double level = 4 * Math.Pow((double)XP, 0.2794) - 5;
            level = Math.Floor(level);
            return (int)level;
        }

        public static double GetXpForLevel(int level)
        {
            double XP = Math.Pow((level + 5) / 4, 5000 / 1397); //gives wrong output
            return XP;
        }

Math.Pow((level + 5) / 4d, 5000d / 1397d);

That worked, thanks! On side question, what does d do?
