A motorcycle can travel 15 miles on 3/8 of a gallon of gasoline. Find the unit rate in miles per gallon
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

40 mpg

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the unit rate which is 1/8 we just divide 15 by 3 which is 5 and to find the mpg of the full gallon now that we have the unit rate we just multiply the 1/8 or 5 miles by 8 which would give us 8/8 or 40 miles.
