Breaking Problems Into Steps

Step-By-Step Problem Solving

When you see a big math problem, break it into smaller steps. Think about what you know, what you need to find out, and solve each part one at a time. This makes tough problems easier and helps you avoid mistakes!

Tips

  • Read the problem carefully.
  • Draw a picture or use objects to help.
  • Solve each part before putting it all together.

Examples

  • To solve 27 + 36, first add 20 + 30, then add 7 + 6, and finally put the sums together.

  • For a word problem about sharing cookies, draw cookies and split them into groups.
