I'd like to be able increase the math font so that the fractions are easier to read. If I use display math it ends up on a new line and centred. I know that the span tag's math class affects the math formulas, but I can't figure out how to increase the size by 1 or 2.
Below is an example of the problem.
Thanks.
<problem>
<script type="loncapa/perl">$exponent = &random(10,12,1);
$term = &random(5, $exponent-2,1);
$index= &random(1,2,1);
$numerator = &choose($index, 3,5);
$index= &random(1,2,1);
$denom = &choose($index, 2,4);
$termnumerator = $numerator^$term * &factorial($exponent) / (&factorial($term) * &factorial($exponent-$term));
$termdenominator = $denom^$term;
#$ANSWER = $numerator/$denom;</script><startouttext />One of the terms in the expansion of <m eval="on">$(x + b)^{$exponent}$</m>, where <m>$b > 0$</m>is <m eval="on">$\frac{$termnumerator}{$termdenominator}x^{$term}$</m>. Find the value of <m>$b$</m>. Do not approximate your answer.
