Does a car traveling the logest time always travels the gratest distance?
Not necessarily. The distance a car travels is determined by its speed and the time it spends traveling. If a car is traveling at a slower speed but for a longer period of time, it may not cover as much distance as a car traveling at a faster speed but for a shorter period of time. So, the longest time does not always correspond to the greatest distance traveled.
