Questions and Answers

What is the primary goal of problem solving?

  • To determine the cause of the problem
  • To identify the end result of the problem
  • To understand the complexity of the problem
  • To find a solution to the problem (correct)

    • Which method is useful when the problem is complex and the solution is difficult to determine?

  • Determining the cause of the problem
  • Starting with the beginning and working forward
  • Working backwards method (correct)
  • Following steps and using logic

    • What is the first step in the working backwards method?

  • Start with the beginning and work forward
  • Determine the end result of the problem
  • Identify the cause of the problem
  • Start with the final solution and work backwards (correct)
