From Text to Photos: 5 Simple Ways to Solve Math with GoMim

Whether you're new to GoMim or have been using it for a while, you may not have fully explored everything it can do. GoMim is more than just a calculator—it's an AI math solver that explains problems step by step, helping you truly understand the process instead of just memorizing answers.

Many people start by typing in a simple equation or uploading a quick photo, but GoMim offers much more flexibility. You can mix text, images, and formulas to get highly accurate solutions tailored to your problem.

This guide will walk you through all the main ways to use GoMim—from the simplest inputs to advanced combinations—so you can get the most out of it, whether you're doing homework, preparing for exams, or brushing up on math skills.

Getting Started with GoMim

Before trying different input methods, here's how to get started:

• Access GoMim: Just visit gomim.com in your browser. It works smoothly on both desktop and mobile devices.
• No setup required: There's no need to download apps or complete long registrations.
• Simple interface: GoMim works like a chat—you type or upload a problem, and it replies with clear, step-by-step explanations.

Think of it as chatting with a personal tutor who's available anytime. Once you're comfortable, you can explore the various input methods below.

Method 1: Entering Text Directly

Typing is the most straightforward way to start using GoMim. It's quick, clear, and works well for most problems.

Pure Text Input

The easiest way to use GoMim is simply typing your problem. For example:

1、Solve for x: 2x + 5 = 15

• Ask GoMim: Solve for x: 2x + 5 = 15

• Click button: Just click "Solve," and you'll have your answer right away

2、Find the derivative of x² + 3x

• Ask GoMim: Find the derivative of x² + 3x 

• Click Button: And click "Solve"—then you'll get your answer.

Just type, click Solve, and GoMim will show the answer along with each step. This is perfect for algebra, arithmetic, and word problems.

Text + Formula Input

Some problems include both description and mathematical notation. GoMim allows you to mix the two for maximum clarity. For example:

1、Calculus

• Ask GoMim: Given the function f(x) = 4x⁴ - 3x³ + 2x² - 5x + 1:

（1）Use the power rule (f'(xᵏ) = kxᵏ⁻¹) and constant rule (f'(c) = 0, where c is a constant) to find the derivative f'(x).

（2）Compute the value of f'(1) (the derivative of f(x) at x=1).

• Once it receives the question, GoMim will first identify what exactly the problem you're inquiring about is.

• After confirming the questions to be solved, GoMim will provide you with explanations question by question and step by step, based on the question information you provided.

2、Geometry

• Ask GoMim: A trapezoid has two parallel sides (bases) where the longer base b₁ = 12 cm, and the height h (distance between the two bases) is 5 cm. The area of the trapezoid is 45 cm², and the non-parallel side (leg) adjacent to the shorter base b₂ forms a right angle with b₂ (i.e., this leg equals the height).

（1）Use the trapezoid area formula A = ½(b₁ + b₂)h to find the length of the shorter base b₂.

（2）Calculate the perimeter of the trapezoid (perimeter = sum of all four sides).

• Regardless of the type of questions you have, GoMim is able to recognize your problem effectively.

• As the same, GoMim will provide you with explanations question by question and step by step after confirming the questions to be solved, based on the question information you provided.

By combining context and formulas, you make sure GoMim understands exactly what you're asking. This method is especially helpful for word problems, geometry, and advanced subjects like calculus or trigonometry.

💡 Tip: Try separating the given information from the questions to be solved—this helps GoMim return even more accurate results.

Method 2: Uploading an Image

Not all problems are typed out—many come from worksheets, textbooks, or handwritten notes. GoMim makes uploading them simple:

Drag-and-Drop Upload

If you already have a photo saved, just drag it into the GoMim window. The AI will recognize it instantly.

Copy-and-Paste Upload

If you've taken a screenshot, you don't even need to save it—just paste it directly into GoMim. It's very simple! The thing you need to do is to select the picture with the math problem, then press Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V, and you can easily ask the question.

File Browser Upload

Prefer the traditional way? Click the "+" button, browse your computer, and select the image.

• No matter which of the above image upload methods you choose, once the image is successfully uploaded, Gomim will identify the question that needs to be answered in the image. After successful identification, it will list the required formulas based on the question and analyze the key numerical information involved in the calculation.

• And provide a step-by-step problem-solving process.

Whichever option you choose, GoMim will scan the picture and solve the problem step by step.

💡Tips: Make sure the image is clear and includes the full problem statement so GoMim can process it accurately.

Method 3: Combining Image and Text

Sometimes a photo alone isn't enough. Maybe it's blurry, or you only need certain questions from a worksheet. In that case, you can upload the image and add text instructions, like:

Here's how:

1、Upload the photo of your problem.

2、Add extra text, like "solve question 3 and question 17 from the image"

• GoMim can combine the instructions in the input text to accurately identify the problem in the image that needs to be solved, and provide detailed solutions to the problem respectively in accordance with your instructions.

This ensures GoMim knows exactly what to focus on.

Method 4: Image + Text + Formula

For the most detailed or multi-step problems, you can use all three inputs together—an image, text, and formulas.

For example, upload a photo of a circle from a worksheet, add the note "radius = 7", and include the formula A = πr².

• Then ask GoMim: Here is a circle with radius = 7. Can you calculate the area using A = πr² and explain step by step?

• GoMim can accurately follow the instructions, use the mathematical formulas from the question words, and combine the problem information in the picture to solve the problem in detail.

This combination gives GoMim the clearest instructions, making it ideal for advanced topics like calculus, trigonometry, or complex word problems.

Method 5: Uploading from Mobile to PC

If your math problems are saved in your phone gallery—or you just snapped a photo—you don't need to transfer it to your computer. GoMim makes the process smooth:

1、Click the Mobile icon on the GoMim homepage.

2、A QR code will appear. Scan the QR code with your phone.

3、From your phone gallery, upload the saved photo that contains the math problem.

4、Highlight the exact area of the problem on the image and tap Submit.

5、On your computer, once the upload is complete, click Solve to open the detailed solution page

6、Continue as usual: review the step-by-step solution, ask follow-up questions, and explore related concepts.

This QR flow makes it easy to capture problems on your phone and work through them comfortably on your computer—no extra apps or cables required.
