Fractions knowledge by grade 5 uniquely predicts success in higher mathematics. Yet, assessments show that too many students struggle with this critical foundational math skill from grade 3 onward.

Solve the equation \(\frac{3s + 9}{4} = 7\). This means \(3s + 9\) has all been divided by 4. To solve the equation, inverse the operations. The opposite of dividing by 4 is multiplying by 4. Any ...

Make sure you are confident in calculating with negative numbers, which is a skill often needed to solve equations. To solve the equation, do the inverse operation. The inverse of multiplying by 12 is ...

A new Google Lens feature is on the way that helps students learn math and STEM-related topics. To use the new “Homework” search mode, all you have to do is scan the equation you need help solving. It ...

We propose a discontinuous Galerkin method for fractional convection-diffusion equations with a superdiffusion operator of order α(1 < α < 2) defined through the fractional Laplacian. The fractional ...

Mathematicians have found solutions to a 140-year-old, 7-dimensional equation that were not known to exist for more than a century despite its widespread use in modeling the behavior of gases.

A mathematician at Carnegie Mellon University has developed an easier way to solve quadratic equations. The mathematician hopes this method will help students avoid memorizing obtuse formulas. His ...
