Break Down Complex Problems

Tackling Tough Questions

When facing a complex algebra problem, break it into smaller, more manageable steps. Identify what is being asked, list the knowns and unknowns, and solve each part before putting it all together.

How to Approach

  • Highlight keywords in the question.
  • Draw diagrams or charts if needed.
  • Work through one step at a time to avoid feeling overwhelmed.

Examples

  • Start by solving for one variable before moving on to others in a system of equations.

  • Turn a word problem into an algebraic equation before trying to solve it.
