Consider the following situations:
A crossword puzzle where multiple word combinations satisfy the clues and fit the grid.
A mathematical problem where there are multiple ways to come to the correct answer (eg. the many ways to calculate pi)
You need to get from point A to point B and could drive, bicycle, take the bus, or walk.
You want something improved in your house and you speak to different professionals. The plumber recommends something with pipes; the carpenter, with wood; the electrician, with wires and circuits, etc.
In these situations, there are multiple ways to ultimately solve the issue, but each might have its advantages and disadvantages.
Is there a word or phrase describing these situations?
edit: My question is distinct from this question. The linked question seeks a word describing the solutions. I seek a word describing the problem.
