in the example.

Answer 1

Unit rate
`=` Numerator ÷ Denominator

Explanation:

Unit rate , we simply divide the two numbers in fraction

Unit rate
`=` Numerator ÷ Denominator

Given, 3 counselors assigned to a group of 24 campers

so, 3 counselors
`=` 24 campers

Unit rate
`=` campers ÷ counselors

`=` 24 ÷ 3

`=` 8 campers per counselors

so, it means 1 counselors assigned to a group of 8 campers

1 counselors
`=` 1 ₓ 8
`=` 8 campers

2 counselors
`=` 2 ₓ 8
`=` 16 campers

3 counselors
`=` 3 ₓ 8
`=` 24 campers

4 counselors
`=` 4 ₓ 8
`=` 32 campers

5 counselors
`=` 5 ₓ 8
`=` 40 campers
