Which statement is true? a. the problem-solving steps are best applied before you know there is a problem. b. problem solving can be achieved through a systematic strategy that involves analyzing the problem. c. problem solving can be applied in the workplace but does not work well with personal or school problems. d. problem solving can be used only to resolve simple problems.

B. Problem solving can be achieved through a systematic strategy that involves analyzing the problem.

The answer above is correct.

"A" is false because you would need a problem to solve before starting the problem-solving process. "C" is false because problem solving applies to any situation in which a problem need be solved. "D" is false because problem solving may be used to solve both simple and complex problems; it generally applies more so to complex problems, but both nonetheless.
