Introduction to the word problem solving process
Identify what's going on in a word problem by extracting keywords, mapping objects and attributes, and building a clear big-picture description to guide solving.
Identify keywords, objects, and attributes to move from the big picture to the details of a word problem, then categorize details as given values, requirements, or relations.
Master production set word problems by identifying keywords, defining objects and attributes, building an object-attribute table, and solving problems with a system of equations for A, B, and C levels.
Decompose word problems by identifying the object and its attributes, and analyze alternative scenarios to form equations.
Master digits word problems by applying the word problem solving process, using place value and decimal system to interpret numbers, digits, and their values.
Solve a digits word problem by modeling a two-digit number as eight times the sum of its digits, inserting 4 between its digits to form a three-digit number, and solving the resulting equations.
Analyze a three-digit number with ones digit 1. Form a four-digit number by inserting zero and a new three-digit number by moving the ones; use their sum.
Solve distance–speed word problems by modeling a car with initial speed v and final speed v minus 8, using two equations to find the initial speed.
Model distance speed word problems with two vehicles 372 miles apart that meet after 4 hours, where speeds differ by 8 mph; form two equations and solve for both speeds.
