Do they exist?

Anyone know where I can get some help?

I'm having to do some quite complicated (complicated for me anyways) calculations at work and my maths is beyond terrible (i don't really know what i'm doing - i just think i do!). Just wondering if there's anyone/thing out there where i can give numbers and what I want from them and it/they can help work out the kind of calculations i need to do to achieve the answers?

Possibly the math section of Yahoo Answers, Reddit or Stackexchange. Be sure to let them know it's for work and not a homework problem.

I use wolframalpha.com. You have to pay for full version to see all steps of calculation though.

Mathway is a sort-of cheating tool, but it'll give you the answers if you're able to work backwards, and the premium version shows how to work out the problems.
