This math topic focuses on teaching students how to properly set up unit conversion problems involving two separate ratios. The problems cover a variety of conversion scenarios between units of time, length, and combinations of both. Each problem presents an initial unit and asks students to convert it into a different unit over a different baseline (e.g., minutes per foot to seconds per yard). Students need to select the correct sequence of multiplication or division by relevant conversion factors to solve each query correctly. This forms part of an introductory module on unit conversions.
