Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Chain-of-thought prompting
Why this is correct
Chain-of-thought prompts the model to reason step by step, which is ideal for math problems.
- ✗
Zero-shot prompting
Why it's wrong here
Zero-shot may not elicit step-by-step reasoning.
- ✗
Tree-of-thought prompting
Why it's wrong here
