Word Problems Problem Solving Strategies –Understand –Plan –Carry Out –Check

Understand Read carefully Visualize the situation Draw a picture if applicable

Plan Inventory what is known –Pay attention to units Assign descriptive variables to unknowns Find the appropriate formulas

Carry Out Solve for the unknown symbolically Substitute in the given values with correct units Compute the answer

Check Is the answer reasonable? Does it come out in the correct units? Does it answer the question?

Words for Operations Keep in mind that English is ambiguous Pay attention to the context

Subtraction

Addition

Multiplication

Division

Equals is the same as gives will be was is equivalent to
