Question

Write a unit rate for the situation 9 strikes in 3 innings

Answer 1

9 divided by 3 is 3

3 strikes per inning

Answer 2

Here 9 strikes in 3 innings are given. We have to find the unit rate of this situation.

So, in 3 innings there are the number of strikes = 9

To find the number of strikes in 1 inning we have to divide 9 by 3, as the number of innings is decreasing.

In 1 inning there are the number of strikes =
`(9)/(3)` = 3

So we have got the required answer. The unit rate of the situation is 3 strikes in 1 inning.
