What's Problem Sum?

Problem Sum is a term commonly used in the context of math education, particularly in regions that follow the Singapore Math curriculum. It refers to a type of math problem that typically involves multiple steps and requires students to apply various mathematical concepts and strategies to find the solution. These problems are often word problems that describe a real-world scenario, requiring students to read, comprehend, and analyze the situation before applying the appropriate math operations to solve it.
