Front

How can you rearrange the formula S = d/t to solve for distance?

Back

Distance (d) can be calculated as d = S * t.

Front

How can you rearrange the formula S = d/t to solve for time?

Back

Time (t) can be calculated as t = d/S.

Front

What is the relationship between speed, distance, and time?

Back

Speed is the rate at which distance is covered over time.
