Hi, I'm encountering an issue on the Copilot website with scientific equations. When using equations like F = WV/mV, it displays in a strange format, for instance, \frac{W}{V} = \frac{(m/V).

    Hi rana,

    The reason its like that is because Microsoft Copilot is generating your answer using LaTEX formating, To correct this always specify to Copilot to not use LaTEX format when submitting your maths question, You can simply just type it at the end of your question "Please do not use LaTEX format and use Algebraic notation".

    Hope this helps.

    Thank you Bill for your feedback, my apologies for not being clear about the issue. It's not my input that shows up incorrect, it's the response that I get from CoPilot regarding a science question that has this weird format for scientific equations. here is the full response for your review.(the bold text)

    Certainly! Here’s an example FE Exam question that tests your understanding of mass vs. weight:

    Question: An object has a mass of 150 lbm. What is its weight in lbf? Assume standard Earth gravity.

    (A) 150 lbf (B) 150 lbm © 4.65 lbf (D) 32.2 lbf

    Solution:

    • Weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity.
    • To find weight, we use the formula: (W = mg).
    • Given mass ((m)) = 150 lbm.
    • Acceleration due to gravity ((g)) on Earth is approximately 32.2 ft/sec².
    • Calculate weight: (W = 150 \times 32.2 = 4830\ \text{lbf}).

    Same issue...

    Precise mode in browser version displays math equations properly but Creative and Balanced modes within the app still has the issue.
