Why do you think rates are usually written as unit rates

It's simpler and clearer to write unit rates.  For example, I averaged 59 miles per hour (59 mph) on this morning's drive back home.  I could also state that I averaged 118 miles per 2 hours (which is mathematically equivalent).

Jobisdone [24]
Answer:
3c=273
c=91
2c= 212
C= 106
c= 91+ 106= 197
so they will need 197 canoes total

Why:
So first you have to determine a set variable to represent the number of canoes, I chose C. Then you make an equation to represent the number of canoes 273 people will use if they group into 3's, from this I got 3c=273. Solve for C and get 91.
The remainder of the group which is 485-273= 212 will use canoes in groups of 2's. To represent this, 2c=212. Solve for C and get 106. Combine 106 and 91 to get the total number of canoes.

Answer:

a. 311 hours

b. i. $3,100 in receipts  

   ii. $2,799 in expenses.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The company is making $10 per hour and spending $9 an hour. Their profit is therefore:

= 10 - 9

= $1 per hour

Since they spent $311 on the new equipment, the amount of time it would take for them to make this back is:

= 311 / 1

= 311 hours

b. In 311 hours, the total receipts would be:

= 311 * 10

= $3,110

The expenses would be:

= 311 * 9

= $2,799
