  How to Solve Math Word Problems Using Number Lines
  Author(s): Navaj Uddin*
  
  Number lines are a valuable tool for solving math word problems, particularly when dealing with situations that involve sequencing, comparisons, or understanding the relationship between numbers. By visually representing quantities on a line, number lines help students develop a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts and provide a framework for problem-solving. When faced with a math word problem, one can start by reading and comprehending the problem statement. Next, identifying the key information and determining what needs to be solved is essential. Once the problem is understood, a number line can be drawn or visualized to represent the quantities involved. For instance, consider a problem that involves adding or subtracting values. To solve such a problem, one can mark the starting point on the number line and then move forward or backward along the.. Read More»
