Express each rate as a unit rate. (5points each)
neonofarm [45]
To solve for the unit rate, know that the final answer must be out of 1. Or it is the quantity or amount of something per unit of measurement.

For instance in the above question, the unit rate for 32 teams in 4 divisions would be 8 teams per division.

Likewise for the other question it would be 270/15.
