Question

Tanya is training a turtle for a turtle race. For every 1/3 of an hour that the turtle is crawling, he can travel 2/23 of a mile. At what unit rate is the turtle crawling?

Answer 1

Answer: 6/23 mph

Step-by-step explanation: We change the 1/3 of an hour to 1 hour by multiplying 1/3 and 2/23 by 3. 1/3 times 3 is 1(hour) and 2/23 x 3 is 6/23(miles). So the unit rate the turtle is traveling at is 6/23 mph.
