[header] How to improve mental math skills [title] Visualize the equation in your head. [step] The first step in solving a math problem in your head is to visualize the problem mentally. Imagine the numbers and the equation in your head.
As you solve portions of the problem, visualize the new numbers that you're working with. Repeating numbers mentally or verbally, in a whisper, will also help you to remember more significant numbers in the equation. This way, you'll feel this new image when you see your math papers later in the day. [substeps] You may be more aware of your words and body language when you're visualizing the equation. When you picture the equation, you then have a much better time because you are thinking of the process in your head, rather than the equations. [substeps] For example, imagine that math can be only done in a particular time period. When you think about each answer (number, or word) create a picture about what could happen, and then try to make it into a happy picture. Once you have a picture of each answer in your head, work on how to make it into a happy picture of each part of your brain.
