This math topic involves calculating the speed of a car given the distance it travels and the time interval during which it travels. The problems require converting time (given in hours and minutes) into hours only, and then using the speed formula: Speed = Distance / Time. Each scenario presents a different set of distances and time periods, challenging the ability to compute speed accurately from practical, real-life inspired situations. The questions are set up in a multiple-choice format, offering various speed options to select from.
