D) working backward

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dividing a problem into smaller, more manageable units is the process of creating subgoals, making choice A the correct answer. Categorizing options refers to organizing alternatives into groups based on their similarities, evaluating solutions involves the process of assessing the effectiveness of potential solutions, and working backward involves starting at the end goal and determining the steps necessary to reach it. None of these processes involve dividing the problem into smaller parts.
