Recalling the Seven-Step Strategy in Workspace Puzzle Logs

In a company's team-building initiative, employees participate in logical reasoning games to sharpen their cognitive skills. A program coordinator is analyzing a participation log for an employee named Gerry. The data shows that the number of completed Sudoku puzzles is eight more than twice the number of crossword puzzles Gerry completed. The log indicates that Gerry completed 22 Sudoku puzzles this week.

Without solving any equations, recall and describe the first four steps of the standard seven-step problem-solving strategy as they specifically apply to analyzing Gerry's puzzle logs. For each of the first four steps, clearly state the name of the step and describe what action or mathematical translation is performed for Gerry's scenario during that step.
