Question

What is the unit rate for 64 ounces in 8 cups

Answer 1

64 ounces ... 8 cups
x ounces = ? ... 1 cup

If you would like to know what is the unit rate, you can calculate this using the following steps:

64 * 1 = 8 * x
64 = 8 * x       /8
x = 64 / 8
x = 8 ounces

The correct result would be 8 ounces per 1 cup.

Answer 2

Ok. So first, we need to set up the proportion.

64/8 = x/1

Now, we can cross multiply

64*1 = 8x
64= 8x
8x/8 = 64/8
x= 64/8

Now we have to divide 64 by 8. 

x=8

Our final answer: The unit rate is 8 ounces per cup.
