Rate of travel = (distance traveled) divided by (time traveled)
The distance traveled divided by the time taken to travel that distance gives the average speed. This value represents the rate at which an object moves over a given distance in a specific amount of time.
The helicopter's altitude, distance traveled, speed/rate of travel, etc.
Speed is the rate at which an object covers distance. It is typically calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken to travel that distance. The formula for speed is speed = distance/time.
Distance = (rate)(time). Where distance is equal to the rate times the time.
Distance = Rate * Time Distance = 52.5 mph * 6.75 hours = 354 miles traveled ---------------------------
Multiply the quantities you know. Distance = (rate) x (time)
The rate that you cover a distance is your speed. Speed is a measure of the distance traveled per unit time. If your units are meters and seconds, then your speed would be in meters/second. To find the speed of something you divide the distance it traveled by the time it took to travel that distance. For example if something traveled 40 meters in 10 seconds its speed would be (40 meters)/(10 seconds) = 4 meters/second
The automobile formula, rate per kilometer originated in South Africa. The formula is rate times time equals distance traveled per kilometer.
You can calculate the time it takes to travel by dividing the distance by the rate. The formula is time = distance / rate. This will give you the time in hours it takes to travel the given distance at the given rate.
It is defined as a rate because it is distance traveled over time elapsed. For example, sixty miles an hour means that one will travel 60 miles in one hour. Rate is a specific kind of ratio where two measurements are related to one another, in this case 60 miles and one hour.
D=RT is an equation stating that distance traveled is equal to the rate of travel multiplied by the amount of time travelling.
This question is incomplete. You need to know the rate of travel as well as well as the distance traveled in order to find time needed to cover 959 miles.
