I tried this last night as well at @NHCSAdmin request and I could not register either. The registration button doesn't even take me to a registration option.

That worked, thanks. It would not allow me to get there on my own.

Very confusing that the math problem asked a question in Roman numerals, but only requested an answer. But it actually wanted me to translate the answer to Arabic. It just assumed that I would guess that it would ask in one number system and answer in another. That makes no sense.

Tagging @halizard just so that they know that people are having complications.

@scottalanmiller I wonder if that was the issue from the computer, all of the math problems on the computer were with Roman Numberals while on my phone it was 2+2.

Interesting.
I got VII / I, which of course the answer should be VII assuming we are using Roman Numberals with non-Roman math symbols, which doesn't make sense on its own. But the answer that they wanted was 7. If they wanted that, they should have mentioned that they wanted an Arabic answer. If this was a test, and the teacher wanted 7, the teacher would have been wrong.

@NHCSAdmin From my desktop here I had 0 + 5 as my question..

@DustinB3403 I just tried it again and I got another Roman Numeral question, I took what @scottalanmiller said in his reply and converted it to the number 4 and I was then able to register. So it looks like my issue was that I kept replying with the Roman Numerals as my answer instead of converting it.

Ha ha. I just assumed that whoever wrote it was trying to be clever and failed and was right. I did not give them the benefit of the doubt and it paid off.
