Find X in this formula… okay, I’ll just put in the 4 choices and see which one works.

Find X where X is a modifier (a series of calculations) to be used with the provided numbers to end on a specific answers.
And i often had like 3 different sets of provided numbers and answers to verify if the series of calculations are goin in the right direction. Once you have sm that answers all 3 questions you known its gold.
Last step is restructuring the “modifier” so it actually looks like a formula.
