    Word problem from the Līlāvatī (12th century), with its English translation and solution. In science education, a word problem is a mathematical exercise (such as in a textbook, worksheet, or exam) where significant background information on the problem is presented in ordinary language rather than in mathematical notation.

    The word problem for an algebra is then to determine, given two expressions (words) involving the generators and operations, whether they represent the same element of the algebra modulo the identities. The word problems for groups and semigroups can be phrased as word problems for algebras. [1]

    Oil-in-place is also known as stock tank original oil-in-place (STOOIP) or stock tank oil-initially-in-place (STOIIP), referring to the oil in place before the commencement of production. In this case, stock tank barrels refers to the volume of oil after production, at surface pressure and temperature (as opposed to reservoir conditions).

    The total estimated quantity (volumes) of oil and/or gas contained in a subsurface reservoir, is called oil or gas initially in place (STOIIP or GIIP respectively). [12] However, only a fraction of in place oil & gas can be brought to the surface ( recoverable ), [ q ] and it is only this producible fraction that is considered to be either ...

    The problem of bounding the size of an automaton that distinguishes two given strings was first formulated by Goralčík & Koubek (1986), who showed that the automaton size is always sublinear. [2] Later, Robson (1989) proved the upper bound O ( n 2/5 (log n ) 3/5 ) on the automaton size that may be required. [ 3 ]

    Word problems are problems which need a phase of situation understanding / translation to equations / however you may call it, prior to mechanical calculus. Word problems are problems stated in words instead of using mathematical notation. The first definition is a subset of the second, and hence the misunderstanding between both sides.
