“A problem well put is half solved”
— John Dewey

Simplified Meaning:
When you clearly understand a problem, finding a solution becomes much easier. Imagine you have a car that won't start. If you just say "my car is broken," that's too vague, and you'll struggle to fix it. But if you figure out that the battery is dead, now you know exactly what steps to take, like charging the battery or getting a new one. In the same way, if you're having trouble with schoolwork, it's better to pinpoint the exact part that confuses you, such as a difficult math concept, instead of saying "math is hard." Then, you can focus on that specific area, maybe by asking a teacher for help with that particular topic. By being clear about what's wrong, you make it much simpler to find an answer and solve the issue.
