Distance
Distance is a product of the rate at which something travels and
the amount of travel time:
Example 1
How many miles can you travel if you drive at an average
speed of 55 miles per hour for 3 hours?
1. You know the rate (55 miles per hour) and the time
(3 hours). Substitute the values in the distance
formula.
distance= 55×3
2. Multiply to find the distance.
55 x 3 = 165 miles
Example 2
At a bakery, a package of frosted cookies is priced at $3 per
package. If a teacher treats her class by buying 4 packages, how
much would the cookies cost before tax?
1.You know the number of units (4 packages) and the price per
unit ($3 per package).
Substitute the values in the cost formula.
c= nr
total cost = 4x $3
2. Multiply to find the total cost.
4x$3 = $12
If you know any two of the three variables in a formula, you can
solve for the third variable.
Example 3
Max bought a set of 4 floor mats for $44. How much was the
price per floor mat?
1. You know the total cost ($44) and the number of units (4
floor mats). Rewrite the formula to solve for the price per unit (r).
c = nr
= /
9. How many tickets would you get for $25 if raffle tickets cost $5
apiece?
10. If you paid $20 for 10 bus transfer tickets, how much did you
pay per ticket?
