Xtramath Score

I like working on Xtramath on a device where you dont have to type. I rather press the numbers with my fingers so that I dont press the wrong thing. It is really hard to type in the numbers on a computer or click the answers.

Unorginized
Unorganized

This is unorganized because it is all over the place and you cannot read it from top to bottom.
