Ratios, Rates, and Distance Calculations

This video tutorial covers sixth-grade math concepts, focusing on the formula distance equals rate times time. It includes examples of calculating time, distance, and speed using real-world scenarios like a seal swimming, a dragonfly traveling, and a car's speed. The lesson also explores ratios, fractions, and unit conversions, providing a comprehensive understanding of these mathematical principles.

What is the formula used to calculate distance?

• Distance = Rate - Time

• Distance = Rate x Time

• Distance = Rate / Time

• Distance = Rate + Time
