How to solve word problems?

It's actually fairly easy to solve word problems using a tried-and-true step-by-step approach.

  • Aloud to yourself, read the issue.
  • Make a Drawing.
  • Ask yourself, "What am I looking for?"
  • List the items that have been provided.
  • Locate the key phrases.
  • Solve.
  • Verify your work.

Here are some actions to take:

  1. Recognize the issue, including all the terminology used to describe it. Recognize what you need to look for, Recognize the issue's context.
  2. Convert the issue into an equation. Give the unknown a variable (or variables) to symbolize, Indicate exactly what the variable stands for.
  3. Put the strategy into action and find a solution.

Given:

Elephants at the Norfolk zoo are fed = 1/2

Buffalo are fed 7/10 as much corn as the elephants = 7/10 * Elephants fed

= 7/10 * 1/2

= 7/20

Hence, 7/20 barrels of corn are the buffalo fed each day.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Edward drove altogether of 16.1 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Edward was Running around on his bike.

Distance from home to post office = 4 \frac{4}{5} \ miles

4 \frac{4}{5} \ miles can be Rewritten as 4.8 \ miles

Distance from home to post office = 4.8 \ miles

Now Given:

Distance from Post office to market = 3.25 miles.

Now we will calculate Distance from Home to market.

Distance from Home to market can be calculated by adding Distance from home to post office and Distance from Post office to market.

Framing in equation form we get;

Distance from Home to market = 4.8+3.25 = 8.05\ miles

Also Given:

his mother picked him up at the market and drove him home.

We need to find the total miles Edward drive altogether.

total miles Edward drive altogether will be equal to Sum of Distance from Home to market and Distance from market to home.

framing in equation form we get;

Total Distance Edward drove = 8.05+8.05 = 16.1\ miles

Hence Edward drove altogether of 16.1 miles.
