Giving this as to test the equation results in "False":
But simply changing the upper level on the divider, it results in true
What gives?

Simplification is not done by default.
Moreover, == (Equal) and === (SameQ) are not the same.
FullSimplify[(a == (a r - a)/(r - 1))]
True
You might not think you are expected to understand these subtleties of Wolfram Language, as Wolfram Alpha is meant as a human interpreter. However, by using === you are just misleading the interpreter. If you would use =, you also get the expected result.
