4 packs of gun for 2.40 or 5 packs for 3.20. What’s the unit rate

= 0.8 2.40 per 3.20

Showing Work

This is a fraction equal to

4 2.40 ÷ 5 3.20

We want a unit rate where

1 is in the denominator,

so we divide top and bottom by 5

4 2.40 ÷ 5

5 3.20 ÷ 5

=

0.8 2.40

1 3.20

=

0.8 2.40

3.20

= 0.8 2.40 per 3.20
