Jacob received his score on his math paper and realized that he performed poorly.According to the steps in problem solving, the next step that must be taken by him is to

A) ignore all the subgoals created by him during the problem-solving process.
B) rethink and redefine his problem.
C) employ heuristics rather than algorithms as the problem-solving strategy.
D) merely frame the problem in a vague way.

Subgoals

Intermediate goals or objectives that are set as steps towards achieving a final goal, aiding in the organization and execution of complex tasks.

Heuristics

Simple, efficient rules, either hard-coded by evolutionary processes or learned, that help in decision-making, discovering, learning, or problem-solving with incomplete information.

Algorithms

A set of rules or procedures for solving a problem in a finite number of steps, often used in mathematics and computer science.
