Answer 1

Question: Find the unit rate in feet per second

300 yards over 1 minute

Answer: 15 ft per second

Reasoning: Since we are trying to find the unit rate of feet per second for 300 yards in one minute. 1 yard is 3 feet. 300 x 3= 900 Now divide 900 by 60 for the seconds. 900/60= 15

So 15 feet per second :)

Answer 2

In order to find the unit rate in ft / sec of 300 yards / min. We first have to elicit the conversion values for each unit of measurement, this will allows us identify how much will we multiply in order to get the goaled value.
Conversion values:
1. 1 yard = 3 feet
2. 1 minute = 60 seconds

Solution:
1. 300 yards x 3 feet/1 yard = 900 feet
2. 1 minute x 60 seconds / 1 minute = 60 seconds

Thus, 900ft/60sec
