I'm not the maintainer for the automake build, so I can't comment on whether
there is an uninstall option or not. (I handle the CMake build, and I know for
a fact that I haven't implemented an uninstall.)
However, if you want to delete tuxmath from your system, I'd suggest looking
in /usr/local/bin. The various settings files are in /usr/local/share/tuxmath.
If you delete the binary and this directory, I think you will have purged your
system.
Best,
