Answer:

35/36

Step-by-step explanation:

total less than or equal to 2:

1+1

one option out of 6*6= 36

Probability of getting a total of 2: 1/6*1/6= 1/36

Probability of getting a total more than 2: 1-1/36= 35/36

How is finding the unit rate helpful before graphing a proportional relationship

Paul [167]

One example, take the conversion fact that there are 5 miles for every 8 km.

Now if we want to work out how many kilometres in 6 miles, the conversion above is not going to help straight away.

We first need to find how many kilometres in ONE mile [which is the unit rate]

5 miles = 8 kilometres
1 mile = 8/5 kilometres
1 mile = 1.6 kilometres

Once we know the unit rate, we can then work out the number of kilometres for any number of miles.

For example:
6 miles = 6×1.6 = 9.6 kilometres
25.5 miles = 25.5 × 1.6 = 40.8 kilometres
