On this page, you will find several animated PowerPoint presentations that help you to understand basic mathematics better. They are easy to use and fun to watch, but it may take a while to download for the first time. You may prefer to download the viewing software when you are not in a hurry, and then enjoy the shows later. Since PowerPoint is a Microsoft product, it will work better with Internet Explorer.
If you do not have PowerPoint installed on your computer, you can download the viewer below.
Download Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer.
