Verbal or word problems solving in mathematics is a major nightmare for students. One of the reasons is that they don't have a good technique to tackle this kind of problems. The goal of this book is to teach a sound technique based on 6 key steps: -Understanding the problem; -Finding the unknowns; -Simplifying the problem; -Drawing figures if necessary; -Identifying the key facts and translating them into algebraic terms; -Stating the main relationships between the variables and the data. The last two, solving the equation and checking the result, are common practice. In this work, we'll go through a thinking process, repeated throughout the book, to solve word problems. The most important thing to keep in mind is how we bridge the gap between the problem and the finding of its main equations. This technique will make students more confident when they face verbal problems.
