Question

Find the unit rate and show work
289 miles on 10 gallons​

Answer 1

28.9 miles per gallon

Explanation:

unit rate is usually something per something. Like miles per hour. In this case we have mile per gallon. MPG.

Unit rate is basically A number X per 1 of something.

so in this cares X per gallon.

we want 10 gallons to go to 1 gallon. So we divide by 10 to get to 1. But if we divide by 10 on one side, we have to do it to the other side. so 289/10=28.9

so our final answer is:

28.9 miles per gallon
