Rules – how to type answers
| Rule | Example (what to type) |
|---|---|
| Use / for fractions | 3/4 |
| Use brackets ( ) around numerators | (x+5)/2 |
| No spaces anywhere | 3x-7 |
| Use numbers, not words | 9 |
| Use lowercase x (not X) | 2x+1 |
| You can use decimals OR fractions | 4.5 or 9/2 |
📝
Examples – how to type different answers
Simple number: 7
Linear expression: 2x-5
Fraction with x (numerator): (x+3)/4
Numeric fraction: 3/2 or 1.5
Just the variable x: x
Expression with subtraction: 5x-12
Fraction with two terms in numerator: (2x+1)/3
⚠️ These examples are NOT quiz questions — they only show you the correct format. You still need to solve each problem yourself.
❌
Common mistakes – avoid these
| Wrong ❌ | Correct ✅ | Why? |
|---|---|---|
| x+3/4 | (x+3)/4 | brackets are needed around the whole numerator |
| 2x + 5 | 2x+5 | no spaces allowed |
| two | 2 | use digits, not words |
| x+7÷2 | (x+7)/2 | use / not ÷ |
| X+1 | x+1 | always lowercase x |
| (x+7) / 4 | (x+7)/4 | remove spaces around / |
💡
Before you submit – quick check
- No spaces anywhere in your answer
- Fractions use / (not ÷)
- Brackets around numerators: (x+2)/5 not x+2/5
- Only numbers, variables and operators – no words
- Lowercase x only
- If the answer is just a number, type the number (e.g., 4)
🧠 Remember: The computer checks your answer exactly. If you type 2x+6 but the correct answer is 2x+6 (no spaces), any space will make it wrong. Follow the format above.
