1If you have gone 70 meters in 1 hour, how fast were you
going in meters/hour?
Solution
Rate = Distance ÷ Time
= (70 m) ÷ (1 hr) = 70 m/hr
#ProblemCorrect AnswerYour Answer
2If you have gone 40 miles in 1 minute, how fast were you
going in miles/minute?
Solution
Rate = Distance ÷ Time
= (40 mi) ÷ (1 min) = 40 mi/min

1If you have gone 20 kilometers/hour for 3 hours, how far
have you gone in kilometers?
Solution
Distance = Rate × Time
= 20 km/hr × 3 hr = 60 km
#ProblemCorrect AnswerYour Answer
2If you have gone 50 millimeters/second for 3 seconds, how
far have you gone in millimeters?
Solution
Distance = Rate × Time
= 50 mm/s × 3 s = 150 mm
