What is the unitary method?

The unitary method approach is a strategy for problem-solving that involves first determining the value of a single unit, then multiplying that value to determine the required value.

Given:

Distance from Susan's grandparent's house = 120 kilometers

Distance from Susan's school = 10 kilometers

As given, 8 kilometers = 5 miles

Then, 1 kilometer = miles

So, we have to convert the distances i.e. 120 kilometers and 10 kilometers into miles.

120 kilometers = = 75 miles

10 kilometers = = 6.25 miles
