Step-by-step explanation:
Story problems can be solved once they are converted to number sentences or equations.
Yes, this is true.
For example: Lets convert a problem in equation.
Suppose Ralph has 17 marbles and he divided the marbles equally among his 4 friends. So, how many marbles are left with Ralph.
Now, we can solve this by converting the problem in numerals.
Number of marbles Ralph has = 17
Number of friends = 4
So, each friend gets = \(\frac{17}{4}=4\) plus 1 marble left
So, each friend gets 4 marbles and Ralph is left with 1 marble.
