How do I create a Numerical Answer question?

With the Questions tab [1] selected inside a new quiz, click the New Question button [2].

Click the drop-down menu and select the Numerical Answer question type.

To build a Numerical Answer question, you will need to add the following details:

1. Question title
2. The number of points the question is worth (quiz totals are calculated based on combined total of questions)
3. The question text (use the Rich Content Editor to include video, images, math equations, or flash activities)
4. Exact Answer with an error margin plus a feedback bubble for the answer if applicable (all correct feedback bubbles are green)
5. Question response options

Add as many correct answers as needed for the question. Delete extraneous answer options by clicking on the Trash icon [6].

Click the Update Question button.

Click the Save button to save your work on your quiz.

Click the Preview button [1] if you want to verify the quiz before you publish it. When you are ready, click the Publish button [2].
