Release Notes
What's changed on MathGem, in order
MathGem is actively maintained — new worksheet topics, content pages, and fixes ship regularly. Here's a running log of what's changed.
September 2026
- Added a page for every topic (26 in all) with an explanation, worked examples, common mistakes and sample problems, next to the worksheet generator. Topics now have their own addresses, such as /algebra/solving-equations/; old links still work and redirect.
- Added an overview page for each level with its grade range and a recommended order of topics.
- Added practice guides for parents and teachers, starting with a grade-by-grade practice roadmap.
- Added Contact and Terms of Use pages, updated the About page and Privacy Policy, and unified the site footer.
- Worked examples and generated problems for every topic are now checked automatically before each update.
- Fixed worksheet generators: subtraction no longer gives negative answers unless negative numbers are switched on; division remainders are correct for negative numbers; out-of-range Max Value entries no longer freeze the page; fractions like "3/1" print as whole numbers; systems of equations always have one solution; factoring answers are fully factored; radical and conic problems print consistently; integer, ratio and decimal problems now match their settings.
