Word Problem: A word problem is a math issue that has been expressed as a narrative or scenario. It basically asks you to picture how you would use arithmetic to solve a real-world situation.

Any word issue may be solved using the following method.
Determine the issue's focus by carefully reading the problem.
Use variables to represent unknown numbers.
Convert the remaining portions of the issue to mathematical expressions.
Resolve the issue.
Verify your work.

Johnny, for instance, has 12 apples. How many will he still have if he gives Susie four? We can tell Johnny begins out with 12 apples from reading the issue that he ends up with 4 less since he gave some of them away. So, this may be written as: 12 – 4 = 8 
So Johnny has 8 apples left.
