Question

Paula ran a total of 12 miles over the course of 2 track practices. What is the unit rate?

Answer 1

The unit rate is 6 miles over the course of one track practice. To get this answer, you simply put the numbers 12 and 2 in fraction form, 12/2. Then simplify.

Answer 2

`(6)/(1)`

Explanation:

To find the unit rate we need to divide the # of miles over the number of practices to get the # of miles ran in a single practice:

`(12)/(2)`=
`(6)/(1)`

Hope this helps!
