Step-by-step explanation:
The key to solving word problems is in translation: turning word into math
Below is a general approach to most/any word problem
1. Read through the whole question once, without lingering over details, to get some sense of the overall problem
2. identify and label the variables or unknowns in a way that makes it easy to remember what they stand for.
3. translate the problem into one or more equations, sentence by sentence, and be careful of the order in which you translate the terms
4. solve the equation(s)
5. check your work

There are 14 pounds of nuts, and each are 16 ounces.
14*16 = ?
14*16 = 224
Final answer: She has a total of 224 ounces of nuts.
Remainder Theorem says that if there is any Polynomial equation P(x), which is to be divided by (x - a) then remainder can be calculated by substituting value of a in equation P(x).
= P(x) divided by 
Step 1: Find a
To find a we will have to convert (x+2) into (x - a) form
i.e. (x+2) = (x - (-2))
therefore, a = -2
Step 2: Substitute value of a in P(x),
By substitution we get,
= 
= 
= 
= Remainder
Hence, Remainder is 55.
