Answer:

300 soccer card will each person receive.

Explanation:

Unit rate defined as the rates are expressed as a quantity 1, such as 2 miles per hour or 5 meter per second.

As per the statement: Maria and 3 friends have 1,200 soccer cards

Total number of persons = 4

Number of soccer cards = 1200

By definition of unit rate;


\text{Unit rate per person} = \frac{\text{Number of soccer cards}}{\text{total number of persons}}

Substitute the given values we get;


\text{Unit rate per person}=(1200)/(4)

Simplify:

Unit rate per person = 300 Soccer card.
