+<h1>Numerical questions</h1>
+
+<p>From the student perspective, a numerical question looks just
+like a short-answer question.</p>
+
+<p>The difference is that numerical answers are allowed
+to have an accepted error. This allows a continuous range of answers
+to be set. For example, if the answer is 30 with an accepted error of 5,
+then any number between 25 and 35 will be accepted as correct.</p>
+
+<p>Like with short answer questions, different answers, or the same
+answer with different precisions can be given. In this case, the first
+matching answer is used to determine the score and the feedback.<p>
+
+<p>To provide feedback for responses that do not match any of the answers
+you entered, provide some feedback with a '*' in the answer box.</p>
