One of Microsoft's most useful but little-known services, Math Solver, is being added to the upcoming Microsoft Edge 91 browser update as a preview feature, Microsoft said Friday.
Like the name suggests, Math Solver is a service that takes mathematical equations and offers solutions. Microsoft's plan is to allow students to import a photo of an equation into the browser, where Microsoft's AI will solve the problem along with instructions on how to reach the solution on their own. It also includes a mathematical keyboard for students to type in their own equations, along with access to tutorials and quizzes.
Math Solver didn't arrive out of the blue, however. Math Solver has quietly existed as a well-regarded Android app and iOS app for a number of years, and Microsoft has a Math Solver website, as well. While Wolfram Alpha may be the go-to name for solving online math equations, Microsoft's Math Solver site is arguably more user-friendly in that it shows its work, so to speak. Microsoft didn't provide an illustration of what Math Solver will look like within Edge, but a screenshot we took of the Math Solver website itself provides a good idea.
