As I always say, as time goes by, we always learn new lessons. Here we are again in Math class, we ended this round by learning about “Rate and Speed”. But why is it important to learn about it? Well, it is obviously important because we need this to interact with our daily life.
Another question is what is the relationship between speed, distance and time? The relationship between three of them is that we can measure how quickly something could move from one point to another point.
Here’s the formula:
Distance = Speed * Time
Speed = Distance/Time
Time = Distance/Speed
Example:
A van traveled 216 km in 4 hours. Can you find its speed in km/h?
So the problem wants us to find the speed in km/h. Well, you already know the formula so it is easy! Just following the formula which Distance/Time:
216/4 = 54 km/h
So that’s the answer to the problem above!
