Step 1. Given information

A particle has a speed of $r$ feet per second and travels a distance $d$ (in feet) in time $t$ (in seconds)

Step 2. Calculation

Speed tells us how fast something or someone is travelling, distance refers to the numerical measurement of how far an object is from a particular place and time refers to an interval separating two events.

The formula $s p e e d = \frac{d i s \tan c e}{t i m e}$ can be rearranged for distance as $d i s \tan c e = s p e e d \times t i m e$ .

The speed of a particle is $r$ feet per second and travels a distance $d$ (in feet) in time $t$ (in seconds), then -

$d = r \cdot t$
