Organizational strategies that help students break complex word problems into manageable chunks may be the key to solving them, according to a 2025 study.

The term "computer" used to be applied to humans that performed calculations by hand. It's still important for today's kids to still know how to, say, multiply without using their calculators (or ...

In 2019, mathematicians finally solved one of the hardest math problems—one that had stumped them for decades. It’s called a Diophantine Equation, and it’s sometimes known as the “summing of three ...

A series of unsolved puzzles in number theory called Diophantine problems date back to 3,700 years ago. Over the years mathematicians have whittled away at them, and recent work has made significant ...

Earlier this year, a trio of mathematicians decided to make lemons into lemonade — and ended up making major headway on a problem that mathematicians have been thinking about for centuries.
