Required

Determine the unit rate

To solve this, we simply take any corresponding values of Cost of cookies and number of cookies

When

Cost = $2

Number = 4

$Rate = Cost/Number$

$Rate = \ 2/4$

$Rate = \ 0.5$ per cookie

Pick another corresponding values

When

Cost = $6

Number = 12

$Rate = Cost/Number$

$Rate = \ 6/12$

$Rate = \ 0.5$ per cookie

Hence, the unit rate is $0.5 per cookie

What it represents is that: Every cookie is sold at $0.5
