Displaying Mathematics in Google Drive?

In summary, displaying mathematics in Google Drive has the benefit of easy collaboration and sharing of equations, as well as convenient access and editing from any device with internet access. To display equations, you can use the "Equation" feature under the "Insert" tab or use LaTeX code. Editing equations is also possible by clicking on the equation or using LaTeX code. Mathematical equations can also be displayed in Google Sheets by using the "Equation" feature or the "EquatIO" add-on. However, there may be limitations such as the need for add-ons or potential display issues if the document is shared with someone without the necessary fonts.
