How do I type out algebra equations in word?

 

[Doug Robbins]

From the Insert menu, select Objects and then choose the Microsoft Equation
Editor item.

If the equations are too complex to be typed in Word, use the Equation
Editor. It comes with every version of Word but is not installed by default.
If you don't find Microsoft Equation 3.0 listed under Insert | Object,
you'll need to use Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Change to install
it (it's under Office Tools).

As described in earlier responses, using the Equation Editor is the
way to create (complex) mathematical expressions in Word. But note
that you may have to specify a fixed value for line spacing to prevent
Equation Editor objects placed within the text of your document (as
opposed to an object being centered in a paragraph by itself) from
increasing the line height, which looks very ugly. This does not apply
to Equation Editor objects with another "Wrapping style" (on the
Layout tab of the Format>Object dialog box) than "Inline with text".
