What did you do when you were stuck on a homework problem?

I'd move on and come back to it after I was done. Most homework snags were resolved via doing more reading or studying. If it was math I'd stop by the math lab before class and have them walk me through the problem.

I would study other things I am familiar with and hope that gives me some inspiration for that particular issue or I would try to think of methods to solve the issue I had not previously thought of or I would google other answers to the same type of problems online or I would call up a friend or go to a tutor at a teaching centre or I would ask a professional to tutor me after class.

Mark a line skip it.

When i finished , came back to marks, tried again for a short time and guessed. So Never leave unanswered just guess.

When faced with a challenging homework problem, I would first take a step back and assess what I knew about the topic. I'd try to break the problem into smaller, more manageable parts. If still stuck, I'd seek additional resources like textbooks, online forums, or study groups. Discussing the problem with classmates often offered new perspectives and solutions. Lastly, I'd consult with my teachers for guidance, ensuring I fully understood the concept. Seeking help and adopting a problem-solving mindset always proved to be effective.

I asked my parents, they were the subject matter experts.

Pretty much all of them in the first ten years.

I always tended to look for explanations online, or even refer back to the textbook.

Work on other problems. Usually the answer will come to me when I work on other things.
