Word problems are math calculations that are just written out as stories instead of as plain calculations. The trick is to figure out what the calculation is. Read the story carefully and write down all of the numbers first. Then, see what you need to do with those numbers.
An example: Fred needs to buy a computer that costs $1,999.99. He has saved up $2,500.00. How much change will Fred get from the computer store?
You write down the two numbers: 1.999.99 and 2,500.00. What are you supposed to do with them? Well, they want to know what the difference is because he's getting change back, so you subtract: 2,500.00 - 1,999.99
