<p>do sat math questions ever give useless information? can all the information be used to solve the problem?</p>
<p>They give useless information all the time. SAT math is really easy the reasons most people don’t get perfect scores are tricky wording, and traps.</p>
<p>sometimes there’s an easier way to solve something, and a piece of info becomes extraneous, but most of the time all of the information is used.</p>
<p>the SAT RARELY gives useless mathematical information, and by rarely i mean 1% of all the tests you will ever take. that is because the SAT doesn’t want to waste ink printing useless information, and it is a reasoning test, not a detective test. it wants to test you on your math ability, not your ability to sniff out BS</p>
<p>haha Ice nailed it…</p>
<p>There may be multiple ways for solving a problem, which may or may not use all of the given information. However, problems can often be solved in easier ways that use most or all of the given information.</p>
<p>Here u are a typical problem which doesnt require to use the full information.</p>
<p>''To make an apple pie,you need 4 1/2 pounds apples ,3 pounds eggs ,and 1 L water.How many pounds of apples and eggs do you need in order to make 5 apple pies ‘’</p>
<p>(4/12 +3)x5 = …</p>
<p>In geometry problems,sometimes you can solve a problem without needing all the info.But if you manage to solve a problem and you havent used all the information given,double check your work</p>
<p>correct me if im wrong but i think its (9/2+3)x5</p>
