Dustin,

They are not the same, it just binary math:

Solution book
Line 1: access-list 51 deny 239.0.0.0 0.255.255.255
 => Result: Will block 239
Line 2: access-list 51 deny 224.0.0.0 1.255.255.255
 => Result: Will block 224 and 225
Line 3: access-list 51 permit 224.0.0.0 15.255.255.255
 => Result: Will pass 224,225,226,...,238 and 239

Result of acl51:
Will pass 226,227,228,...,237 and 238

Your solution: access-list 51 permit 226.0.0.0 12.255.255.255
=> will only pass 226,230,234 and 238
 
Your solution will not pass 227,228,229,231,232,233,235,236,237
This is why they are not the same.

I? Though 224, 225, and 239 subnet will be implicitly deny, or because
this acl is multicast acl so have to be configure the deny statement.
