This math topic focuses on understanding and comparing time durations using the metric system. Students are asked to determine whether certain events, like a flight duration or the time it takes to send a letter, are shorter or longer than specified times ranging from minutes to days. The problems aim to develop skills in estimating and comparing time intervals effectively within real-world contexts, enhancing their understanding of time measurement in practical scenarios.
