Speed and Time to Distance - Same Units (Level 3)
This math topic focuses on calculating distances by using given speed and time values, all within consistent units. Various scenarios are presented, involving different entities such as horses, bugs, spaceships, and bacteria moving at certain speeds for specified durations. The problems ask students to determine how far each entity travels, reinforcing their understanding of multiplying speed by time in units like meters per minute, centimeters per hour, kilometers per second, and millimeters per hour. This is a practical application of the formula for distance in the context of speed, distance, and time calculations.
