Which is Further - Changed Time Units (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on comparing distances traveled by using different units of speed and time. It examines scenarios where two entities (like bacteria or bugs) move at different speeds and for different durations. Each problem requires converting speed or time units to determine which entity travels further over its given period. This topic is a practical application of skills within the broader unit concerning speed, distance, and time at an advanced level. These problems facilitate understanding of unit conversions and applying the formulas for distance calculation in varied contexts.
