Calculating Distance and Rate Problems

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the distance traveled by Adam's plane using the formula distance equals rate times time. It provides a step-by-step calculation of the distance traveled at a constant speed of 375 miles per hour over six hours, resulting in a total distance of 2,250 miles. The tutorial also includes a verification of the calculations and concludes with a summary of the problem-solving process.

What formula is used to calculate the distance traveled by Adam's plane?

• Distance = Rate + Time

• Distance = Rate - Time

• Distance = Rate × Time

• Distance = Rate / Time

How is the rate of 375 miles per hour best described?

• A measure of time taken to travel a distance

• A constant value with no units

• A comparison of two quantities with the same units

• A ratio comparing miles to hours

What is the significance of the number 375 in the context of the problem?

• It is the total distance traveled

• It is the speed of the plane in miles per hour

• It is the time taken to travel the distance

• It is the number of hours traveled

What is the first step in calculating the distance traveled by the plane?

• Adding the rate and time

• Dividing the rate by the time

• Multiplying the rate by the time

• Subtracting the time from the rate

What is the result of multiplying 375 by 6?

• 3,000

• 2,500

• 2,250

• 2,000

How can the calculated distance be verified?

• By using a pie chart

• By using a bar graph

• By using a double number line

• By using a single number line

What is the total distance traveled by the plane after six hours?

• 2,250 miles

• 2,000 miles

• 2,500 miles

• 1,875 miles

What is the purpose of creating a box around the final answer?

• To make the answer look more important

• To separate the answer from the question

• To highlight the answer for the teacher

• To add decoration to the page

What is the benefit of having all calculations set up for follow-up questions?

• It allows for quick verification of the initial answer

• It helps in understanding the problem better

• It makes it easier to answer additional questions

• It provides a visual representation of the problem

What is the final answer to the question of how far the plane traveled?

• 1,875 miles

• 2,000 miles

• 2,500 miles

• 2,250 miles
