Obseving Contrast

When solving a math problem, you have to use certain rules that you have previously learned in order to solve the problem. For example, if you want to solve an algebraic equation when you have an unknown variable, you have to get the variable alone on one side of the equation. Once you do that you can figure out the answer to the problem.

Writing an English paper can be somewhat similar. When you write a paper, you have to use certain grammar rules that you have picked up throught your years of learning. Trying to write an English paper with out the proper rules can make it hard on the reader. The reader would not be able to read a paper that did not have proper grammar.

Math and English can also be somewhat different. Grammar applies to all written papers, but the rules of math are not the same for every problem. The rules change according to the type of problem you are solving.
