Answer:

Unit rate defined as the rate are expressed as quantity as 1 such as 3 meter per seconds or 5 miles per hour.

As per the given statement:

Jeremy gives his horse 12 gallons of water each day

By definition unit rate;


\text{Unit rate per day} = 12 gallons

To find how many 1-quart pails of water is that.

Use the conversion:

1 quart = 0.25 gallons

then;


\text{Unit rate per day} = 12 * (1)/(0.25) = (1200)/(25) = 48 quart

Therefore, 48 1-quart pails of water is that.
