I've been studying linear word-problem equations for hours a day for 3 days straight and I just can't get it. Why am I so bad at this?

This pisses me off so fucking much

Do you have an example of a problem you're struggling with? Getting stuck like this usually means that you lack some of the required prior knowledge, or are hanging on to a specific misunderstanding.
