Question

which ratios have a unit rate greater than 1? choose all that apply 2 1/2 miles:3 hours 9/8 miles:5/6 hour 1/3 mile: 2 3/8 hours 9/5 miles:3 hours 4 miles:3 1/3 hours 7 miles: 3/4

Answer 1

Answer: The ratios that have a unit rate is 9/8 miles:5/6hours and 7miles: 3/4 hours

Explanation:

Unit rate is the ratio of the distance travelled o the time taken.

For us to know which of the ratios has a unit rate greater than 1, we need to divide the distance by the time as shown;

If distance = 9/8 miles and time = 5/6 hours

Hence the ratio that has a unit rate is 9/8 miles:5/6hours

If distance = 7 miles and time = 3/4 hours
