Question

Find the unit rate. 180 miles in 3 hours

Answer 1

Answer:

60 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

First, put the equation in a fraction.

You would put 180 up top because people always say miles per hour not the other way around.

You can see the dividing line as your "per" and your "hour" would be the bottom number.  

To find the unit rate, you will divide the numerator (180) and the denominator (3).  

Your final answer should be 60 miles per hour.

$\frac{180}{3} = \frac{60}{1}= 60$
