This math topic focuses on unit conversion involving rates, specifically converting between different units of time and distance. Students practice converting rates such as minutes per yard to seconds per foot and feet per second to yards per minute using given conversion factors (such as 3 feet in a yard). The problems feature a variety of scenarios involving creatures and objects moving at given rates, requiring students to apply conversion skills to calculate new rates in different units. Multiple choice answers are provided for each problem, often using fractional representations.
