This video shows how to set up and solve distance rate time word problems for Algebra 1 and Algebra 2.

To solve distance rate time problems, it is helpful to know that distance = rate x time. For short, d = rt.

By setting up a table you can organize the given information and find an equation to solve for the unknown value you are looking for in the problem.

The table for the word problems have columns for rate, time, and distance. There are typically two rows for these types of problems and by filling in the given information for each row you can create an equation and use some algebra to find the unknown value.
