REASONING AND PROBLEM SOLVING
Reasoning and problem-solving play crucial roles in the sequential process of
completing any task.
Reasoning is the process of analysing a task in a logical and clear manner, which
helps in identifying the best choice among the available options.
Problem Solving is the process of finding solutions to complex or difficult tasks.
For example, let’s say you want to go to your cousin’s birthday party tonight, but
you also have an exam the next morning.
In this scenario, you have two choices: attending your cousin’s birthday party
or preparing for the exam. You will first consider each option carefully, which is
known as Reasoning. After evaluating your options, you’ll decide which one is
more important, which is referred to as Problem Solving.
