Question

What is the unit rate of 120 problems in 5 hours

Answer 1

Lets find the unit rate by setting up a proportion.

120/5 = x/1

Cross multiply

120*1 = 120
5*x = 5x

5x = 120 Divide both sides by 5.

5x/5 = 120/5
x = 120/5 Divide

x= 24 Final answer

Final answer: The unit rate is 24 problems per hour.

Answer 2

To find this we need to divide the amount of problems to the amount of hours. The answer will be how many problems in an hour. Lets do it:-

120 ÷ 5 = 24
24 problems per hour

24 × 5 = 120
We were RIGHT!!

So, the unit rate to this is 24 problems per hour.
