Definition of 'Solve' Date: 11/29/2005 at 19:09:57 From: Skyler Subject: Mathematical definition I am a 9th grade student. In algebra class today I was told by my teacher that a problem such as 2 + 2 cannot be solved. In order to solve a problem, there has to be a variable involved. If this is correct, what would the solution to any math question that did not have a variable be called? What is the definition of solve in mathematics? I think that solve is what you would call a resolution to any math problem, not limited to questions involving variables.
