QUESTION 37
Given the following prompts used with a Large Language Model, classify each as employing the Chain-of- Thought, Least-to-most, or Step-Back prompting technique.
L Calculate the total number of wheels needed for 3 cars. Cars have 4 wheels each. Then, use the total number of wheels to determine how many sets of wheels we can buy with $200 if one set (4 wheels) costs $50.
2. Solve a complex math problem by first identifying the formula needed, and then solve a simpler version of the problem before tackling the full question.
3. To understand the impact of greenhouse gases on climate change, let’s start by defining what greenhouse gases are. Next, well explore how they trap heat in the Earths atmosphere.
Chain-of-Thought: The first prompt calculates the total number of wheels and then uses that information to determine how many sets of wheels can be bought. This sequential reasoning process aligns with the Chain-of-Thought technique.
Least-to-most: The second prompt solves a complex problem by first identifying the needed formula and then solving a simpler version before tackling the full question. This incremental approach matches the Least-to-most technique.
Step-Back: The third prompt starts by defining greenhouse gases and then explores their impact on climate change, taking a step back to establish foundational knowledge before addressing the main question.
