How To Use MathOtter

This web application is easy to use. It runs in the browser on any device (phone, laptop, tablet, etc.) You don't need to download or install anything.

An unlimited number of practice problems (and answers) are arranged into 4 main categories. Each category has a menu of individual topics.

When you complete a practice problem, you can check the answer. If you need help, the "Show Me How" button provides a step-by-step solution to the problem, generated by an AI system.

Click the button to see a demo of how practice problems work.
