Question

Farmer Brown is tilling her field. Farmer Brown tills 2/3 of an acre in 2/7 of an hour. What is Farmer Brown's unit rate of tilling?

Answer 1

Answer:

2 1/3 acres per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide both numbers by 2, you get 1/3 and 1/7. If 7 makes up an hour, then you multiply 1/3 by 7, which gets you 2.333.. which is equivalent to 2 1/3.
