Hi :) I thought that was what Math was for? For simple equations as quoted it might seem strange to have a separate app to do that sort of thing but most people really don't need extra weight in Writer to do something they never do anyway. It might be nice if it could handle simple things like 1/2 but aren't there "special characters" for most of those anyway? Regards from Tom :)
It's not in Writer. It's a separate app (at least in the LO meaning of separate) that provides the function of creating nice looking math equations, just like you see in text books. You don't have to use it, if you don't want to. As for special characters, use the U.S. International keyboard layout, so that you can easily use characters like: ¹²³¤£€¼½¾¥×÷ and more.
