The formula for distance problems is: distance = rate × time or d = r × t
Things to watch out for:
Make sure that you change the units when necessary. For example, if the rate is given in miles per hour and the time is given in minutes then change the units appropriately.
It would be helpful to use a table to organize the information for distance problems. A table helps you to think about one number at a time instead being confused by the question.
The following diagrams give the steps to solve Distance-Rate-Time Problems. Scroll down the page for examples and solutions. We will show you how to solve distance problems by the following examples:

Answer:
A. 282
Step-by-step explanation:
A trick I know is if you add all the digits of the number and they add up to a multiple of 3, it is divisible by 3.
282:
2 + 8 + 2 = 12
187:
1 + 8 + 7 = 16
385:
3 + 8 + 5 = 16
412:
4 + 1 + 2 = 7
Answer:
The equation of the line that passes through the points (0, 3) and (5, -3) is 
.
Step-by-step explanation:
From Analytical Geometry we must remember that a line can be formed after knowing two distinct points on Cartesian plane. The equation of the line is described below:
(Eq. 1)
Where:
- Independent variable, dimensionless.
- Dependent variable, dimensionless.
- Slope, dimensionless.
- y-Intercept, dimensionless.
If we know that 
and 
, the following system of linear equations is constructed:
(Eq. 2)
(Eq. 3)
The solution of the system is: , 
. Hence, we get that equation of the line that passes through the points (0, 3) and (5, -3) is .
A coefficient is a numerical or constant quantity placed before and multiplying the variable in an algebraic expression (e.g. 4 in 4x).
The 2 and + are out since they don't have variables(and the + is just a +).
So 4 and x are left. x is a variable, not a coefficient, so the last(and correct) answer is 4.
