💡 How to solve: Decimal Word Problems
Find the key words: "in all" or "altogether" means add, "how much more" or "left" means subtract, "each" with a total means multiply, and "shared equally" or "how many groups" means divide. Line up the decimal points to add or subtract. To multiply, multiply as whole numbers, then count the decimal places in both numbers: 2.5 × 1.2 → 25 × 12 = 300, two places → 3.00 = 3. To divide by a decimal, move both decimal points the same way: 3 ÷ 0.25 = 300 ÷ 25 = 12.

💡 How to solve: Fraction Word Problems
Decide what the story asks. "In all" or "altogether" means add; "left", "how much more" or "how much longer" means subtract. To add or subtract, rewrite the fractions with a common denominator first: 12 + 13 = 36 + 26 = 56. A fraction "of" an amount means multiply: 23 of 34 is 23 × 34 = 612 = 12. Multiply the numerators and multiply the denominators; change a mixed number to an improper fraction first: 2 12 × 12 = 52 × 12 = 54 = 1 14. Simplify at the end.
