--------------
d = rt
distance = rate * time
400 = rate * 6
rate = 400 miles/6 hours = 200/3 miles/hours (or mph)
rate = 200/3 mph = 66.67 mph
----------------
Notice that the units, miles and hours, are also involved. miles/hour is common, which implies that we divide the # of miles by the # of hours.
