It literally translates to that but does it actually mean I'll try to think? Or I'll give it a thought?

3`I'll try.. I'll give..` <- 考えてみ**た** is past form, so it'd be more like "I **tried** to think, I **gave** it a thought", no? – Chocolate Nov 05 '18 at 05:34

みる in this context is an important subsidiary verb meaning "to try ～ing". た is the ta-form (past tense) of みる. The sentence means "I gave it a thought" or "I tried thinking about it."
