Abstract
It was the purpose of this study
(1) to discover to what extent, if any, extraneous
numbers in problems increase the difficulty in
problem solving for pupils in Grades 5-6-7
(2) to discover what effect, if any, a short period
of concentrated work in problem solving has, on
helping pupils at these grade levels in the
solving of problems containing extraneous data.
