Problem-solving Strategies In Mathematics: From Common Approaches To Exemplary Strategies: From Common Approaches to Exemplary Strategies(Problem Solving in Mathematics and Beyond)

Series: Problem Solving in Mathematics and Beyond

This book introduces ten problem-solving strategies by first presenting the strategy and then applying it to problems in elementary mathematics. In doing so, first the common approach is shown, and then a more elegant strategy is provided. Elementary mathematics is used so that the reader can focus on the strategy and not be distracted by some more sophisticated mathematics.
