When relevant information is available, when a clear standard exists to assess the correctness of a solution, and when the problem is straightforward, the analytical problem-solving model should be used. This model involves using logical reasoning and data analysis to define the problem, identify potential solutions, and evaluate those solutions against established criteria. Creative problem solving is best suited for more complex or ambiguous problems, where there may not be a clear standard for correctness and innovative thinking is required.
