### Languages

The dataset is in English.

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

Each instance contains:
- Problem category/type
- The word problem text
- The correct answer
- A step-by-step explanation

Example:
Category: fractions addition
Alice has 3/4 of a pizza and finds another 2/5 of the same pizza. How much pizza does Alice have in total?
Answer: 23/20
Explanation: To add fractions, find a common denominator (20). Convert 3/4 to 15/20 and 2/5 to 8/20. Add the numerators: 15 + 8 = 23. The answer is 23/20.

### Data Fields

- `operation`: Math category (addition, fractions, algebra, etc.)
- `problem_text`: The word problem
- `answer`: The correct answer (format varies by problem type)
- `explanation`: Step-by-step solution

### Data Splits

The dataset comes as a single file with all 100,000 problems.

## Dataset Creation

### Curation Rationale

This dataset was created to provide a large, diverse set of math word problems for training educational AI systems. The problems cover fundamental math concepts with varying contexts to improve generalization.

### Source Data

The problems are procedurally generated using predefined templates and randomization of:
- Mathematical operations
- Subjects/objects
- Character names
- Real-world contexts

### Annotations

Each problem includes:
- Automatically generated correct answer
- Step-by-step explanation
- Problem categorization

### Personal and Sensitive Information

The dataset uses common first names and generic objects, containing no real personal information.

## Considerations for Using the Data

### Social Impact of Dataset

This dataset can help:
- Develop educational tools for math learning
- Create AI tutors for students
- Generate practice problems at scale

### Discussion of Biases

Potential biases include:
- Western-centric names and contexts
- Limited to elementary/middle school math levels
- English language only

### Other Known Limitations

- Problems are generated rather than human-written
- Limited creative variation in problem structures
- Explanations follow standardized formats
