Kid Math Examples

Interactive JavaScript math exercises for kids - learn addition, subtraction and multiplication through fun examples.

Introduction to Kid Math

These JavaScript examples help kids learn basic math operations in an interactive way. Each example generates random math problems that children can solve, with immediate feedback provided by the JavaScript program.

Educational benefits:
  • Reinforces fundamental math skills
  • Provides immediate feedback to learners
  • Generates unlimited practice problems
  • Engages children with interactive elements
  • Adaptable for different skill levels

Example 1: Addition

A simple JavaScript calculator that performs the addition of two numbers. The program loads two random numbers when the web page is loaded.

// Addition Implementation
function generateAddition() {
    const num1 = Math.floor(Math.random() * 100);
    const num2 = Math.floor(Math.random() * 100);
    document.getElementById('addNum1').textContent = num1;
    document.getElementById('addNum2').textContent = num2;
    document.getElementById('addResult').textContent = '';
}

function calculateAddition() {
    const num1 = parseInt(document.getElementById('addNum1').textContent);
    const num2 = parseInt(document.getElementById('addNum2').textContent);
    const sum = num1 + num2;
    document.getElementById('addResult').textContent = 
        `${num1} + ${num2} = ${sum}`;
}

// Initialize on page load
generateAddition();

Example 2: Subtraction

A subtraction calculator that ensures the first number is always larger than the second to avoid negative results.

// Subtraction Implementation
function generateSubtraction() {
    const num1 = Math.floor(Math.random() * 100) + 50;
    const num2 = Math.floor(Math.random() * num1);
    document.getElementById('subNum1').textContent = num1;
    document.getElementById('subNum2').textContent = num2;
    document.getElementById('subResult').textContent = '';
}

function calculateSubtraction() {
    const num1 = parseInt(document.getElementById('subNum1').textContent);
    const num2 = parseInt(document.getElementById('subNum2').textContent);
    const difference = num1 - num2;
    document.getElementById('subResult').textContent = 
        `${num1} - ${num2} = ${difference}`;
}

// Initialize on page load
generateSubtraction();

Example 3: Multiplication

A multiplication calculator that generates problems with numbers between 1 and 12 for times table practice.

// Multiplication Implementation
function generateMultiplication() {
    const num1 = Math.floor(Math.random() * 12) + 1;
    const num2 = Math.floor(Math.random() * 12) + 1;
    document.getElementById('mulNum1').textContent = num1;
    document.getElementById('mulNum2').textContent = num2;
    document.getElementById('mulResult').textContent = '';
}

function calculateMultiplication() {
    const num1 = parseInt(document.getElementById('mulNum1').textContent);
    const num2 = parseInt(document.getElementById('mulNum2').textContent);
    const product = num1 * num2;
    document.getElementById('mulResult').textContent = 
        `${num1} × ${num2} = ${product}`;
}

// Initialize on page load
generateMultiplication();
