👉 Verbal math refers to the use of language to describe and solve mathematical problems, making abstract concepts more accessible and understandable. It involves explaining mathematical ideas in words, often breaking down complex problems into simpler, step-by-step verbal instructions. For example, instead of just showing a calculation on paper, verbal math might explain each step in detail, such as "First, we need to multiply 45 by 7. To do this, we can think of it as 40 times 7 plus 5 times 7. Multiplying 40 by 7 gives us 280, and then adding 35 (5 times 7) makes it 315." This approach helps in building intuition and communication skills around mathematics.
