23. Kim and Jay leave at the same time to travel 25 miles going to the beach. Kim drives 9 miles in 12 minutes Jay drives 10 miles in 15 minutes. Question: who will arrive first? Unit rate of Kim => 9 miles in 12 minutes => 0.75 miles / minutes => 25 / 0.75 It will take 33.33 minutes for Kim to arrive Unit rate of Jay 10 miles in 15 minutes. => 10 miles /15 minutes => 0.67 miles /minute => 25 / 0.67 It will take Jay 37.31 minutes to arrive at the beach. SO Kim will arrive first
