Each Math Fun Fact is a math puzzle or short article centering on a "cool" mathematics idea. Students can learn about the mathematics of interesting and engaging things like card shuffling in poker, fractals, music, and more. Math Fun Facts provides great enrichment material for gifted math students or problem-solving groups.

Math Fun Facts are searchable by keyword and you can refine your search by topics such as algebra or geometry. It's also possible to filter search results by level of difficulty.
