Word Problems Second Grade Math

Introduction to word problem:
In mathematics, especially in the area of abstract algebra known as combinatorial group theory, the word problem for a recursively presented group G is the algorithmic problem of deciding whether two words represent the same element. Although it is common to speak of the word problem for the group G strictly speaking it is a presentation of the group that does or does not have solvable word problem. (Source: Wikipedia)
