Check a page of homework

Problem 2: 2(x − 3) = 10Grade 8
  1. Distribute2x − 6 = 10The 2 multiplies both x and −3 (the original mistake was 2x − 3).
  2. Add 62x = 16Undo the −6 on both sides.
  3. Divide by 2x = 8Get x alone.
Answer: x = 8 (not 6.5)
Check: 2(8 − 3) = 2 × 5 = 10 ✓
  1. Start in the lobby

    You can attach homework before a session starts — straight from the lobby.

  2. Press + and add your photo

    Press the + next to the Ask box. Choose Upload files or photos, or Take a photo to use your phone's camera. You can add up to 10 files.

  3. Check the preview

    Your photo appears in a strip under the Ask box. Tidy or messy handwriting is fine.

  4. Add a note and choose Check work

    Say what you want, then choose the Check work goal. (Older students see it as Check.)

    Try it“Can you check my homework? I think one answer might be wrong.”
  5. See exactly what to fix

    The tutor confirms problems 1 and 3, and pinpoints the slip in problem 2: 2(x − 3) should become 2x − 6, not 2x − 3. It asks you to fix just that line.

  6. Fix it yourself

    Send your corrected working. The tutor confirms and shows a quick check.

    Try it“Oh, so 2x - 6 = 10, which means 2x = 16 and x = 8?”
