Distance, Rate, and Time Problems

This video tutorial for sixth-graders covers the distance, rate, and time formula. It explains how to manipulate the formula to solve for different variables, such as distance, rate, or time. The tutorial includes example problems to demonstrate the application of the formula and concludes with practice problems for students to solve on their own.
