Answer:

3 children for 1 family

Explanation:

We can find this out by dividing by two.

6 children ÷ 2 families = 3 children for 1 family

Because we split 6 in half, we also split 3 and get 1.

The answer/unit rate is 3 children for 1 family.

This is because we can use equal ratios and proportions to find out what are the unit rates for the numbers.
