Just put this , 13.20/6 which is 2.20 so thats 2.20$ a bowl.
also you could , 2.20*6=13.20 , thats still 13.20 (2.20)

all together this means the unit rate in dollar is 2.20 for bowl , per bowl. for Melinda because she bought them for 13.20


i hope this helps.

To find the unit rate we will divide the amount of dollars ($13.20) by the amount of bowls (6). Then we will check our work. lets do it:-

13.20 ÷ 6 = 2.20
$2.20 per bowl

CHECK OUR WORK:-

2.20 × 6 = 13.20
we were RIGHT!!

So, the unit rate in dollars for, Melinda bought 6 bowls for $13.20 is, $2.20 per bowl.

Hope I helped ya!! xD
