Totally. If you are a grown up that is. If, as I suspect, you are a teenager, that is probably his way of talking a language he thinks you both understand (school) because he might be shy or insecure about talking about things more directly. That said, if he is in fact 48 and you are doing alogrythms in Pizza Hut, then you should seriously consider looking elsewhere......

You both must still be at school so he is using the maths problems as something you can both relate to. Girls mature faster than boys in some ways and perhaps he has no idea what to talk about that will give you some mutual ground. Next time he brings out his maths problem, try and find a common subject that you can both get into on a more personal level.

If he actually gave you mathmatical problems and then watched over you while you tried to work them out then yes, that would be very offputting. It would be very unromantic, and might well make a fool of you - not to mention a bit uncomfortable and rather strange! What did you do next?

ive got one better than that - I went on a date last week with this odd bloke who spoke non stop for over an hour - without drawing breath, about computers and electronics, he cackled like a woman, was quite odd then started banging on the wooden fixture above the bar - looked to me, and said - its not solid! Then cackled again, amitedly he was very nervous and obviosuly lived a hermit like lifestyle, he was into some bizarre things too - needless to say I made my excuses and left, however I was tempted to do a runner from the pub while he was visiting the gents - had the pub had a bathroom window - I may have gone through it

Depends really - Was it a question like, how much is your half of the bill plus 30% of the £3 tip? Or was it, if my salary is £50k a year and your engagement ring should cost 1/3 of that, how much shall I spend?
I think you should be able to work it out from there!!

Hahaha, that is so cool! Especially if the problems involve things like polynomial rings, converging worldlines, or the nonlinear dynamics of falling in love. Or, if you're more intimate, the geometry of curves and surfaces.
But obviously both people have to be kind of into math for that to work.

Some people enjoy mathematical problems. It would have been more conventional for him to discuss interior decor problems, I´d say.
It takes all sorts.

You should have told him politely that you will help him with his homework at an appropriate time and out dating is not the right time to do arithmetic. And smack his wrists.
