Question

Find the unit rate. Round to the nearest hundredth, if necessary.

$2.99 for 16 lb

Answer 1

Answer: 0.19

Explanation:

Answer 2

Divide the total by the number of pounds to get the price per pound, or the unit rate.

$2.99 ÷ 16 lb = 0.186875

Since 0.186875 isn't an accurate US dollar amount, round to nearest hundredth, 0.19.

The unit rate is $0.19/lb.
