A daily way to practice solving equations

Equation Elevator is a free daily algebra challenge built around one simple idea: solving equations gets easier with steady practice, not cramming. Each day brings five new equations, one per floor, starting with straightforward one-step problems and building up to two-step equations, multi-step equations, and equations with variables on both sides. Reach the top and you'll face a system of equations before the day is done.

Unlike a worksheet, nothing repeats and nothing is generated at random forever — everyone gets the exact same five equations on a given day, so you can compare notes, compare methods, and see how your algebra skills stack up against a friend who's learning how to solve equations alongside you.

Whether you're a student practicing algebra for class, brushing up before a test, or just enjoy a quick daily puzzle, Equation Elevator turns equation-solving practice into a short, focused habit: five equations, five floors, one shot at the top.

Frequently asked questions

What is Equation Elevator?

Equation Elevator is a free daily algebra game. Every day it generates five new equations of increasing difficulty, and everyone who plays that day gets the exact same five equations, so you can compare your answers and methods with other players.

What types of equations will I solve?

Each floor covers a different skill: one-step equations, two-step equations, multi-step equations, equations with variables on both sides, and a system of equations at the top. All answers are whole numbers, so there's no rounding or guessing involved.

What happens if I get an equation wrong?

You get a second try with a fresh equation of the same type. If the second attempt is also wrong, that floor's solution and steps are shown so you can learn how to solve it, and you move on to the next floor.

Is there a way to unlock a bonus floor?

Solve all five floors correctly on the first try and a hidden basement floor unlocks. What's down there is part of the fun of finding out.

Is Equation Elevator free?

Yes. No account or download is required — just visit the site each day for a new set of equations to practice.
