Question

Calculate the unit rate:
write your answer as a decimal

1/2 mile in ever 1/3 hour​

Answer 1

`unit \: rate = (distance)/(time)`

unit rate is similar to speed / velocity:

`unit \: rate = ( ((1)/(2) ))/( ((1)/(3))) \\ \\ = (1)/(2) / (1)/(3) \\ \\ = (1)/(2) * (3)/(1) \\ \\ = > { \boxed{ \boxed{unit \: rate = (3)/(2) \: miles \: per \: hour}}}`

[unit rate must have units including per <time> ]
