Speed - Distance and Time to Speed - Variables, Changed Time Units (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on calculating speed when given distance and time, involving changes in units. Students practice converting distance or time measurements (such as centimeters to meters, minutes to hours) to determine the speed of a car in various scenarios. Each problem requires students to solve for speed in different units like cm/s, m/hr, cm/min, mm/d, or m/min, based on provided distances in centimeters, meters, or millimeters, and times in milliseconds, minutes, or hours. This set of problems enhances skills in manipulating formulas, unit conversion, and applying concepts to real-world scenarios within the context of speed, distance, and time calculations.
