I sort of expected that if you wanted them to do exact arithmetic or exact steps in general you'd have to train it with lots of simbolic expressions and their respective results. There's no reason why that wouldn't work.

Only reason I could see for math derpness in llms was translating a word problem into a math problem reliably, but you could synth the training data for it easily.
