Some techniques I use to help solve word problems are starting with simple problems and working my way out to more complex ones, breaking them down into smaller parts, and identifying key information. Then, create an equation or multiple equations based on the problem and solve for the unknown variable. It may be helpful to use diagrams or tables to organize the information. Don't forget to check your answer and make sure it makes sense in the context of the problem. With practice, solving word problems will become easier
