Formulas are your friends!

In mathematics, formulas can be very easy to work with. First, you must know when to use a formula for a given problem. Context is Paramount! You wouldn't want to use a formula for calculating volume of a box when presented with a problem to calculate interest on a financial vehicle! 😄

Look for keys within each problem that can help you associate with the proper formula.
For example, you are asked to find the area of a rectangle, and a length and width are given. Look for formulas that contain only length and width, and narrow down from there!
