Question

Robert is writing a paper for language arts class. he can write 1/3 of a page in 1/2 of an hour. at what rate is robert writing

Answer 1

Rate is a factor of some function. It can be thought of as a gradient: a blend from one value to another. The rate in this case can be calculated by dividing the fraction of he written by the time it takes.

Rate = 1/3 / 1/2 = 2/3 page per hour

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
