Drills are offered in Whole Number Addition, Addition with Decimals, Whole Number Subtraction, Subtraction with Decimals, Percent markup, Multiplication by 1-Digit Numbers, Multiplication by 20-Digit Numbers, Multiplying Decimal Numbers, and Rounding Decimal Numbers. It seems best to work the problems on paper and then enter the answer, which may feel awkward at first, but there is a good, detailed step-be-step explanation of the right answer offered when a student makes a mistake.
