Answer:

Jayln rode 12.4 miles/hour.

Explanation:

The question is asking for a unit rate for the speed in miles per hour that Jayln rode her bike over her 33.48 mile ride. Since we know that she rode a total of 33.48 miles and the total time was 2.7 hours, we can set up our ratio as 33.48/2.7 or miles/hours. In order to find unit rate, or the number of miles per one hour, we need to divide: 33.48 ÷ 2.7 = 12.4. So, 12.4 mph is Jaylyn's speed.
