It has every explanation about the problem statement which I think you should know.

A problem statement is an area of concern or a gap in the existing knowledge that points to the need for further research on that topic. A problem statement is used in research work as a claim that outlines the problem addressed by a study. The problem statement briefly explains the problem that the research will address.
