- dubcanada 5y agoTricks? It's not tricks it's word problems, which is just as important as any other problem. You need to relate math to the real world and having a equation doesn't help, having stuff like Susan is taking a train at 2:32 for 50 kms going 60km/h what time did she get off helps people understand how to turn a real world problem into a math equation to solve it.
