Answer 4

this is how the problem was given to me that's why i put it on here cause i didn't understand i thought it was something i was missing

Answer 5

I can't give you an answer hun. All I can do is guide you through it.

Can you first tell me what operation is between "r" and "t"? (HINT: Are they multiplying each other, dividing, being added, or substracted?)

Answer 6

\[D=RT\] as in distance is rate times time
\[\frac{D}{R}=T\] as in if you drive 100 miles at 50 mph it takes 100/50 = 2 hours
