Question

If i travel 100 miles in 4 hours what is that unit rate

Answer 1

100 miles in 4 hours. The unit rate would be 25 miles per hour.

100miles / 4hrs = 25 miles per hour

Therefore, for every hour you travel, you will gain 25 miles. Or for every 25 miles you travel, you've spent 1 hour traveling it.

y = 25x
where y is the total miles traveled, 25 is the constant unit rate, and x is the number of hours traveled.

for example: you traveled for 8 hours and you want to know how long you've traveled while maintaining the rate of 25mph. Just use the formula

y = 25x
y = 25(8)
y = 200 miles. you have traveled 200 miles in 8 hours.

Answer 2

To find a unit rate you need to divide. We will divide 100 miles by 4 hours. What ever the answer is it will be your unit rate.

100 ÷ 4 = 25

CHECK OUR WORK:-

25 × 4 = 100

We were RIGHT!!!!!

So, 25 miles per hour.

Hope I helped ya!!
