解説 Definition
solving は solve（解決する、解く）の現在分詞・動名詞です。問題や謎、計算などに答えを出す過程を表します。
The present participle or gerund of “solve,” referring to the process of finding an answer to a problem, puzzle, calculation, or difficult situation by reasoning, analysis, or effective action.
覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
原形 solve「問題を解く・解決する」から語末の e を落として -ing を付けた現在分詞・動名詞。solve a problem、solve a puzzle、solve an issue の形で覚える。「答えを得た」より、複雑なものを解きほぐして答えに近づく過程を solving が表す。
Link solving to the base verb solve, “to find an answer or remedy.” When -ing is added, the final silent e is removed: solve becomes solving. Think of a knot being gradually loosened: solving focuses on the process of working through a difficulty until its answer becomes clear. Learn it with common combinations such as solving a math problem, solving a puzzle, and solving an issue. As a participle it appears in “He is solving the problem”; as a gerund it can act like a noun, as in “Solving the puzzle takes time.”
例文
He is solving a math problem.
彼は数学の問題を解いています。
We are solving the issue now.
私たちは今、その問題を解決しています。
Solving this puzzle takes time.

solving の語源・成り立ち Etymology
ラテン語 solvere（解く・緩める）が語源で、接頭辞 so-（離れて）＋語根 luere（緩める）に分解できる。solution（解決・溶液）や dissolve（溶かす）と同根。「結び目をほどく」が原義で、問題を解きほぐすという意味に発展した。
Solving is formed from solve by dropping its final silent e and adding -ing. Solve comes through Latin solvere, meaning “to loosen, release, or resolve.” The idea of loosening something bound or tangled developed into that of finding an answer to a difficulty. The same Latin source is reflected in solution, the result or means of solving something, and dissolve, whose older sense involves loosening or separating a substance into its parts.
